﴿وَلَوْ أَنَّا كَتَبْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ أَنِ اقْتُلُوا أَنفُسَكُمْ أَوِ اخْرُجُوا مِن دِيَارِكُم مَّا فَعَلُوهُ إِلَّا قَلِيلٌ مِّنْهُمْ ۖ وَلَوْ أَنَّهُمْ فَعَلُوا مَا يُوعَظُونَ بِهِ لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَّهُمْ وَأَشَدَّ تَثْبِيتًا﴾
[ النساء: 66]
4:66 And if We had decreed upon them, "Kill yourselves" or "Leave your homes," they would not have done it, except for a few of them. But if they had done what they were instructed, it would have been better for them and a firmer position [for them in faith].
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishAnd I would have enabled them to come on to the straight path that leads to Me and My Paradise.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And if We had ordered them (saying), "Kill yourselves (i.e. the innnocent ones kill the guilty ones) or leave your homes," very few of them would have done it; but if they had done what they were told, it would have been better for them, and would have strengthened their (Faith);

Abdullah Yusuf Ali - Translation
If We had ordered them to sacrifice their lives or to leave their homes, very few of them would have done it: But if they had done what they were (actually) told, it would have been best for them, and would have gone farthest to strengthen their (faith);
Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri
And if We had ordered them (saying), "Kill yourselves (i.e. the innnocent ones kill the guilty ones) or leave your homes," very few of them would have done it; but if they had done what they were told, it would have been better for them, and would have strengthened their conviction;

ولو أنا كتبنا عليهم أن اقتلوا أنفسكم أو اخرجوا من دياركم ما فعلوه إلا قليل منهم ولو أنهم فعلوا ما يوعظون به لكان خيرا لهم وأشد تثبيتا
سورة: النساء - آية: ( 66 ) - جزء: ( 5 ) - صفحة: ( 89 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
And had Allah enjoined them to sacrifice their lives in His cause or to go out of their homes to fight against positive unbelief, they would not have obeyed the injunction with the exception of a few. Had they obeyed Allahs authoritative admonition, it would have been much better for them here and Hereafter. Such obedience would have confirmed their peace and position of authority and deep joy would have settled on their spirits
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(4:66) Had We enjoined upon them: 'Slay yourselves', or 'Leave your habitations', very few of them would have done it; *96 yet if they had done as they were admonished, it would have been better for them and would have strengthened them; *97
And if We had decreed upon them, "Kill yourselves" or "Leave your meaning
*96). As these people are not prepared to endure even minor losses and inconveniences in order to follow the law of God, they can never be expected to make big sacrifices. If asked either to lay down their lives or to give up their homes and families for the sake of the Truth they would fly straight back to unbelief and disobedience.
*97). Had these people been able to free themselves of uncertainty, hesitation and ambivalence, and to resolve firmly to follow and obey the Prophet (peace be on him), their lives would have been spared the instability from which they suffer. Their way of thinking, their morals and their practical dealings would all have found permanent and stable foundations, and they would have enjoyed the blessings granted only to those who follow the one straight path with firmness and resolution. For one who is subject to indecision and hesitation, who keeps changing from one direction to another in a state of uncertainty, life is a continuous exercise in futility.
And if We had decreed upon them, "Kill yourselves" or "Leave your meaning in Urdu
اگر ہم نے انہیں حکم دیا ہوتا کہ اپنے آپ کو ہلاک کر دو یا اپنے گھروں سے نکل جاؤ تو ان میں سے کم ہی آدمی اس پر عمل کرتے حالانکہ جو نصیحت انہیں کی جاتی ہے، اگر یہ اس پر عمل کرتے تو یہ ان کے لیے زیادہ بہتری اور زیادہ ثابت قدمی کا موجب ہوتا
