Na kikundi kati yao walisema: Kwa nini mnawawaidhi watu ambao tangu hapo (7:164)

﴿وَإِذْ قَالَتْ أُمَّةٌ مِّنْهُمْ لِمَ تَعِظُونَ قَوْمًا ۙ اللَّهُ مُهْلِكُهُمْ أَوْ مُعَذِّبُهُمْ عَذَابًا شَدِيدًا ۖ قَالُوا مَعْذِرَةً إِلَىٰ رَبِّكُمْ وَلَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَّقُونَ﴾
[ الأعراف: 164]

Na kikundi kati yao walisema: Kwa nini mnawawaidhi watu ambao tangu hapo Mwenyezi Mungu atawateketeza au atawaadhibu adhabu kali? Wakasema: Ili uwe ni udhuru kwa Mola Mlezi wenu, na huenda nao wakamchamngu.

Swahili Translation - Al-Barwani

English - Sahih International

And when a community among them said, "Why do you advise [or warn] a people whom Allah is [about] to destroy or to punish with a severe punishment?" they [the advisors] said, "To be absolved before your Lord and perhaps they may fear Him."

Tafsiri ya maana yake kwenye lugha ya Kiswahili

Na kikundi kati yao walisema: Kwa nini mnawawaidhi watu ambao tangu hapo Mwenyezi Mungu atawateketeza au atawaadhibu adhabu kali? Wakasema: Ili uwe ni udhuru kwa Mola Mlezi wenu, na huenda nao wakamchamngu.

Na wakumbushe pia hao Mayahudi pale kikundi cha watu wema katika wenzao walio tangulia, ambao hawakutenda mabaya waliyo yatenda wengineo, walipo waambia wanao wapa mawaidha wale waovu: Kwa sababu gani mnawapa nasaha watu ambao Mwenyezi Mungu atawahiliki, au atawaadhibu adhabu kali Akhera, kwa sababu ya madhambi wanayo yatenda? Wakasema: Tunawapa mawaidha ili tupate udhuru kwa Mola wako Mlezi, tusiwe tumefanya taksiri, na kutaraji huenda wakamchamngu.
