﴿مِّنَ الَّذِينَ هَادُوا يُحَرِّفُونَ الْكَلِمَ عَن مَّوَاضِعِهِ وَيَقُولُونَ سَمِعْنَا وَعَصَيْنَا وَاسْمَعْ غَيْرَ مُسْمَعٍ وَرَاعِنَا لَيًّا بِأَلْسِنَتِهِمْ وَطَعْنًا فِي الدِّينِ ۚ وَلَوْ أَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا وَاسْمَعْ وَانظُرْنَا لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَّهُمْ وَأَقْوَمَ وَلَٰكِن لَّعَنَهُمُ اللَّهُ بِكُفْرِهِمْ فَلَا يُؤْمِنُونَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا﴾
[ النساء: 46]

English - Sahih International

4:46 Among the Jews are those who distort words from their [proper] usages and say, "We hear and disobey" and "Hear but be not heard" and "Ra'ina," twisting their tongues and defaming the religion. And if they had said [instead], "We hear and obey" and "Wait for us [to understand]," it would have been better for them and more suitable. But Allah has cursed them for their disbelief, so they believe not, except for a few.

Tafsir Ibn Katheer in English
Abridged Explanation of the Quran

Among the Jews are an evil group who change the words Allah sent down, interpreting them in a way that they were not revealed.
They say to the Messenger ( peace be upon him ), when he instructs them in something, that they hear and disobey, and say, “Listen to us, may you not hear!; and give the wrong impression when they say, ‘Rā’inā’: meaning ‘watch over us’ when they really mean ‘ru’ūnah’ or ‘silliness’, twisting what they say when they want to call the Prophet ( peace be upon him ) so that they say something insulting to the faith.
If they had said ‘We hear and obey’, instead of ‘We hear and disobey’; ‘Listen’, instead of ‘‘Listen to us, may you not hear!"; and had truly said, ‘Watch over us’, then these would have been better for them than what they said, and more appropriate, being worthy and correct behaviour in the presence of the Prophet ( peace be upon him ).
But Allah condemned them and removed them from His mercy due to their disbelief, because they do not have faith in any way that is beneficial.


Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali

Among those who are Jews, there are some who displace words from (their) right places and say: "We hear your word (O Muhammad SAW) and disobey," and "Hear and let you (O Muhammad SAW) hear nothing." And Ra'ina with a twist of their tongues and as a mockery of the religion (Islam). And if only they had said: "We hear and obey", and "Do make us understand," it would have been better for them, and more proper, but Allah has cursed them for their disbelief, so they believe not except a few.

Abdullah Yusuf Ali - Translation


Of the Jews there are those who displace words from their (right) places, and say: "We hear and we disobey"; and "Hear what is not Heard"; and "Ra'ina"; with a twist of their tongues and a slander to Faith. If only they had said: "What hear and we obey"; and "Do hear"; and "Do look at us"; it would have been better for them, and more proper; but Allah hath cursed them for their Unbelief; and but few of them will believe.


Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri


Among those who are Jews, there are some who displace words from (their) right places and say: "We hear your word and disobey," and "Hear and let you hear nothing." And Ra`ina with a twist of their tongues and as a mockery of the religion. And if only they had said: "We hear and obey", and "Do make us understand," it would have been better for them, and more proper; but Allah has cursed them for their disbelief, so they believe not except a few.

من الذين هادوا يحرفون الكلم عن مواضعه ويقولون سمعنا وعصينا واسمع غير مسمع وراعنا ليا بألسنتهم وطعنا في الدين ولو أنهم قالوا سمعنا وأطعنا واسمع وانظرنا لكان خيرا لهم وأقوم ولكن لعنهم الله بكفرهم فلا يؤمنون إلا قليلا

Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim

Among those who are imbued with Judaism are some who translocation the words of the Sacred Scriptures to alter the intended sense of Allahs words. And they interpret their thoughts in words and in deeds; they say to you O Muhammad: We have opened our hearts’ ears but their actions in fact to their words do not accord, featuring disobedience to which they give voice and insolently say: We disobey. And they direct to you the words superficially denoting politeness and deep respect that you think they are saying: We need you to apply your mind and your ears to us, and you are excused if you do not listen, but please attend to us. In point of fact the way they pronounce the words with their tongues in their cheeks (or in Hebrew) admits of secondary bad meaning and insult of the religion, thus: Listen, may you never hear and be afflicted with deafness, you are a thoughtless bad one. But had they said: We open to you our hearts ears and we obey, please listen to us and “unzurna” and direct your intellectual eye upon us; it would have been much better for them and indeed honourable. But Allah has cursed them for their disobedience and their infidelity; how greatly shaken is their faith in Allah


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

(4:46) Among those who have become Jews *72 there are some who alter the words from their context, *73 and make a malicious play with their tongues and seek to revile the true faith. They say: 'We have heard and we disobey' (sami'na wa 'asayna), *74 'Do hear us, may you turn dumb' (isma' ghayr musma') *75 and 'Hearken to us' (ra'ina). It would indeed have been better for them and more upright if they had said: 'We have heard and we obey' (sami'na wa ata'na) *76 and: 'Do listen to us, and look at us (with kindness)' (wa isma' wa unzurna). But Allah has cursed them because of their disbelief. Scarcely do they believe.

Among the Jews are those who distort words from their [proper] usages meaning

*72). It is to be noted that this expression means 'they became Jews', rather than 'they were Jews'. For, originally, they were nothing but Muslims, just as the followers of every Prophet are Muslims. Only later on did they become merely 'Jews'.
*73). This signifies three things. First, that they tampered with the text of the Scripture. Second, that they misinterpreted the Scripture and thereby distorted the meanings of the verses of the Book. Third, that they came and stayed in the company of the Prophet (peace be on him) and his Companions and listened to the conversations which took place there, then went among other people and misreported what they had heard. They did this with the malicious intent of bringing the Muslims into disrepute and thereby preventing people from embracing Islam.
*74). When the ordinances of God are announced to them, they loudly proclaim: 'Yes, we have heard', (sami'na), but then they whisper: 'And we disobeyed' ('asayna). Or else they pronounce ata'na ('we obey') with such a twist of the tongue that it becomes indistinguishable from 'asayna.
*75). Whenever they wanted to say something to the Prophet (peace be on him) they would say, 'isma" (listen), but added to this the expression, 'ghayr musma" which had several meanings. It could either be a polite expression, meaning that he was worthy of such deep respect that one should say nothing to his dislike or it could have a malicious implication, meaning that he did not deserve to be addressed by anybody. It also meant the imprecation: 'May God turn you deaf.'
*76). For an explanation of this see Towards Understanding the Qur'an, vol. I, Surah 2, n. 108.

جو لوگ یہودی بن گئے ہیں اُن میں کچھ لوگ ہیں جو الفاظ کو اُن کے محل سے پھیر دیتے ہیں اور دین حق کے خلاف نیش زنی کرنے کے لیے اپنی زبانوں کو توڑ موڑ کر کہتے ہیں سَمِعنَا وَ عَصَینَا اور اِسمَع غَیر مُسمَع اور رَاعِنَا حالانکہ اگر وہ کہتے سَمِعنَا وَ اَطَعنَا، اور اِسمَع اور اُنظُرنَا تو یہ انہی کے لیے بہتر تھا اور زیادہ راستبازی کا طریقہ تھا مگر ان پر تو ان کی باطل پرستی کی بدولت اللہ کی پھٹکار پڑی ہوئی ہے اس لیے وہ کم ہی ایمان لاتے ہیں
