surah Anfal aya 67 , English translation of the meaning Ayah.
﴿مَا كَانَ لِنَبِيٍّ أَن يَكُونَ لَهُ أَسْرَىٰ حَتَّىٰ يُثْخِنَ فِي الْأَرْضِ ۚ تُرِيدُونَ عَرَضَ الدُّنْيَا وَاللَّهُ يُرِيدُ الْآخِرَةَ ۗ وَاللَّهُ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ﴾
[ الأنفال: 67]
8:67 It is not for a prophet to have captives [of war] until he inflicts a massacre [upon Allah 's enemies] in the land. Some Muslims desire the commodities of this world, but Allah desires [for you] the Hereafter. And Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise.
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishIt is not right for a prophet to take captives from the disbelievers who fight against him until he kills many of them, so that this makes other disbelievers fear fighting him.
By taking captives from Badr, O believers, you want to receive ransom, but Allah wants the Afterlife for you, which is gained by making religion victorious and powerful.
Allah is Mighty in His essence, His attributes and in His domination.
Nothing can overcome Him.
He is Wise in His decree and sacred laws.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
It is not for a Prophet that he should have prisoners of war (and free them with ransom) until he had made a great slaughter (among his enemies) in the land. You desire the good of this world (i.e. the money of ransom for freeing the captives), but Allah desires (for you) the Hereafter. And Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.

Ma kana linabiyyin an yakoona lahu asra hatta yuthkhina fee alardi tureedoona AAarada alddunya waAllahu yureedu alakhirata waAllahu AAazeezun hakeemun
Abdullah Yusuf Ali - Translation
It is not fitting for a prophet that he should have prisoners of war until he hath thoroughly subdued the land. Ye look for the temporal goods of this world; but Allah looketh to the Hereafter: And Allah is Exalted in might, Wise.
Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri
It is not (fitting) for a Prophet that he should have prisoners of war until he has fought (his enemies thoroughly) in the land. You desire the goods of this world, but Allah desires (for you) the Hereafter. And Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.

8:67 It is not for a prophet to have captives [of war] until translate in arabic
ما كان لنبي أن يكون له أسرى حتى يثخن في الأرض تريدون عرض الدنيا والله يريد الآخرة والله عزيز حكيم
سورة: الأنفال - آية: ( 67 ) - جزء: ( 10 ) - صفحة: ( 185 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
No Prophet is entitled to take prisoners of war under the circumstances when the infidels are doing their best to defy Allahs religion, until he has humbled the avowed enemies of faith and subdued the land at the peril of their lives. To take prisoners and ransom them at this stage means that you Muslims are concerned with the interests and pleasures of this life when Allahs concern is the Hereafter, and Allah is Azizun and Hakimun
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(8:67) It behoves not a Prophet to take captives until he has sufficiently suppressed the enemies in the land. You merely seek the gains of the world whereas Allah desires (for you the good) of the Hereafter. Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.

کسی نبی کے لیے یہ زیبا نہیں ہے کہ اس کے پاس قیدی ہوں جب تک کہ وہ زمین میں دشمنوں کو اچھی طرح کچل نہ دے تم لوگ دنیا کے فائدے چاہتے ہو، حالانکہ اللہ کے پیشِ نظر آخرت ہے، اور اللہ غالب اور حکیم ہے
