Surah Maidah Ayat 43 meaning in urdu

اور یہ تمہیں کیسے حَکم بناتے ہیں جبکہ ان کے پاس توراۃ موجود ہے جس میں اللہ کا حکم لکھا ہوا ہے اور پھر یہ اس سے منہ موڑ رہے ہیں؟ اصل بات یہ ہے کہ یہ لوگ ایمان ہی نہیں رکھتے

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

(5:43) Yet how will they appoint you a judge when they have the Torah with them, wherein there is Allah's judgement - and still they turn away from it? *71 The fact is, they are not believers.

But how is it that they come to you for judgement while meaning

*71). In this verse, God unmasks completely the dishonesty of these people. It shows how these so-called religious people who had cast the spell of their religious piety and knowledge of the Scriptures over the whole of Arabia had set aside a categorical injunction of the book which they themselves recognized to be the Book of God, and which they professed to believe in. They had referred that judicial case to the Prophet (peace be on him) for his decision even though they vehemently denied his prophethood. This made it quite clear that there was nothing to which they subscribed sincerely. Their true religion consisted merely of worshipping their interests and desires. They were ready to turn their backs upon the very book which they recognized as the Book of God merely because some of its injunctions were unpalatable to them, and in such cases they did not mind approaching one whom they regarded as an imposter (may God be our refuge from such a blasphemy) in the hope that they might be able to obtain a judgement to their liking.
