surah Nahl aya 74 , English translation of the meaning Ayah.
﴿فَلَا تَضْرِبُوا لِلَّهِ الْأَمْثَالَ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَعْلَمُ وَأَنتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ﴾
[ النحل: 74]
16:74 So do not assert similarities to Allah. Indeed, Allah knows and you do not know.
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishSo - O People - do not make similarities for Allah from these idols that do not benefit nor harm.
Allah has no likeness that you can associate with Him in worship.
Allah knows the attributes of majesty and perfection that are His and you do not know that and as a result you ascribe partners to Him and claim that your idols are similar to Him.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
So put not forward similitudes for Allah (as there is nothing similar to Him, nor He resembles anything). Truly! Allah knows and you know not.
phonetic Transliteration

We try our best to translate, keeping in mind the Italian saying: "Traduttore, traditore", which means: "Translation is a betrayal of the original text".

فلا تضربوا لله الأمثال إن الله يعلم وأنتم لا تعلمون
سورة: النحل - آية: ( 74 ) - جزء: ( 14 ) - صفحة: ( 275 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
And you infidels must realize that Allah is beyond all comparison and like unto Him there is none. Therefore, do not set to Him examples nor express to Him comparisons and parables nor draw similes between Him and created beings, animate or inanimate, for He Knows and you do not
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(16:74) Make no comparisons, therefore, with Allah. *65 Allah knows but you do not know.
So do not assert similarities to Allah. Indeed, Allah knows and you meaning
*65) "Make no comparisons with Allah" : You should not compare AIlah with others nor consider Him to be unapproachable like worldly kings and rulers, to whom none can have access without the mediation and intercession of their courtiers and servants. As Allah is not surrounded by angels, saints, favourites, etc., everyone can have direct access to Him without mediation by anyone.
So do not assert similarities to Allah. Indeed, Allah knows and you meaning in Urdu
پس اللہ کے لیے مثالیں نہ گھڑو، اللہ جانتا ہے، تم نہیں جانتے
