Surah Ibrahim Ayat 3 meaning in urdu

جو دنیا کی زندگی کو آخرت پر ترجیح دیتے ہیں، جو اللہ کے راستے سے لوگوں کو روک رہے ہیں اور چاہتے ہیں کہ یہ راستہ (ان کی خواہشات کے مطابق) ٹیٹرھا ہو جائے یہ لوگ گمراہی میں بہت دور نکل گئے ہیں

Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(14:3) And there is a painful torment for those who reject the Truth: who love the life of this world more than the life pf the Hereafter: *3 who debar people from Allah's Way and want to make this Way crooked *4 (to suit their wishes). They have gone far astray from the Way of Allah.

The ones who prefer the worldly life over the Hereafter and avert meaning

*3) Those who reject the Truth are the people whose interests arc entirely bound with the life of this world, and who do not care at all for the interests of the life of the Hereafter: who are prepared to undergo any punishment in the Next World for the sake of the interests, pleasures and comforts of this world: who, on the other hand, cannot bear the sacrifice of even the smallest pleasure in this world, nor are ready to bear any loss or encounter danger or trouble in this world for the sake of the joys of the Next World. In short, such are the people who have coolly considered and weighed the pleasures of this world against the joys of the Next World, and decided in favour of this world: therefore, they readily sacrifice the interest. of the Next World whenever there is a clash between the two.
*4) That is, "They do not want to follow the Way of AIIah, but endeavour that Allah's Way should follow their desires: it should adjust itself in such a way as to include all their conjectures, theories and whims as its part and parcel, and exclude every creed that dces not suit their way of life: it should provide sanction for aII their habits, customs and manners: it should not demand from them anything which they do not like: in short, the Way of AIIah should be their obedient slave and turn in the direction their devilish lusts want it to turn: nay, it should neither criticize them nor ask them to follow Allah's injunctions. This is their condition for accepting the Guidance of Allah" .
