﴿فَخَلَفَ مِن بَعْدِهِمْ خَلْفٌ وَرِثُوا الْكِتَابَ يَأْخُذُونَ عَرَضَ هَٰذَا الْأَدْنَىٰ وَيَقُولُونَ سَيُغْفَرُ لَنَا وَإِن يَأْتِهِمْ عَرَضٌ مِّثْلُهُ يَأْخُذُوهُ ۚ أَلَمْ يُؤْخَذْ عَلَيْهِم مِّيثَاقُ الْكِتَابِ أَن لَّا يَقُولُوا عَلَى اللَّهِ إِلَّا الْحَقَّ وَدَرَسُوا مَا فِيهِ ۗ وَالدَّارُ الْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لِّلَّذِينَ يَتَّقُونَ ۗ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ﴾

English translation of the meaning
And there followed them successors who inherited the Scripture [while] taking the commodities of this lower life and saying, "It will be forgiven for us." And if an offer like it comes to them, they will [again] take it. Was not the covenant of the Scripture taken from them that they would not say about Allah except the truth, and they studied what was in it? And the home of the Hereafter is better for those who fear Allah, so will you not use reason?

Fakhalafa min baAAdihim khalfun warithoo alkitaba ya'khuthoona AAarada hatha al-adna wayaqooloona sayughfaru meaning in urdu
پھر اگلی نسلوں کے بعد ایسے نا خلف لوگ ان کے جانشین ہوئے جو کتاب الٰہی کے وارث ہو کر اِسی دنیائے دنی کے فائدے سمیٹتے ہیں اور کہہ دیتے ہیں کہ توقع ہے ہمیں معاف کر دیا جائے گا، اور اگر وہی متاع دنیا پھر سامنے آتی ہے تو پھر لپک کر اسے لے لیتے ہیں کیا ان سے کتاب کا عہد نہیں لیا جا چکا ہے کہ اللہ کے نام پر وہی بات کہیں جو حق ہو؟ اور یہ خود پڑھ چکے ہیں جو کتاب میں لکھا ہے آخرت کی قیام گاہ تو خدا ترس لوگوں کے لیے ہی بہتر ہے، کیا تم اتنی سی بات نہیں سمجھتے؟
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
Then after them succeeded an (evil) generation, which inherited the Book, but they chose (for themselves) the goods of this low life (evil pleasures of this world) saying (as an excuse): "(Everything) will be forgiven to us." And if (again) the offer of the like (evil pleasures of this world) came their way, they would (again) seize them (would commit those sins). Was not the covenant of the Book taken from them that they would not say about Allah anything but the truth? And they have studied what is in it (the Book). And the home of the Hereafter is better for those who are Al-Muttaqun (the pious - see V. 2:2). Do not you then understand?

Maka setelah mereka, datanglah generasi (yang jahat) yang mewarisi Taurat, yang mengambil harta benda dunia yang rendah ini. Lalu mereka berkata, “Kami akan diberi ampun.” Dan kelak jika harta benda dunia datang kepada mereka sebanyak itu (pula), niscaya mereka akan mengambilnya (juga). Bukankah mereka sudah terikat perjanjian dalam Kitab (Taurat) bahwa mereka tidak akan mengatakan terhadap Allah, kecuali yang benar, padahal mereka telah mempelajari apa yang tersebut di dalamnya? Negeri akhirat itu lebih baik bagi mereka yang bertakwa. Maka tidakkah kamu mengerti?

Fakhalafa min baAAdihim khalfun warithoo alkitaba ya'khuthoona AAarada hatha al-adna wayaqooloona sayughfaru translate in arabic
فخلف من بعدهم خلف ورثوا الكتاب يأخذون عرض هذا الأدنى ويقولون سيغفر لنا وإن يأتهم عرض مثله يأخذوه ألم يؤخذ عليهم ميثاق الكتاب أن لا يقولوا على الله إلا الحق ودرسوا ما فيه والدار الآخرة خير للذين يتقون أفلا تعقلون
سورة: الأعراف - آية: ( 169 ) - جزء: ( 9 ) - صفحة: ( 172 )Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(7:169) Then others succeeded them who inherited the scriptures, and yet kept themselves occupied in acquiring the goods of this world and kept saying: 'We shall be forgiven.' And when there comes to them an opportunity for acquiring more of those goods, they seize it. *129 Was not the covenant of the Book taken from them that they would not ascribe to Allah anything but the truth? And they have read what is in the Book *130 and know that the abode of the Hereafter is better for the God-fearing. *131 Do you not understand?
Fakhalafa mim ba`dihim khalfunw warisul Kitaaba yaa khuzoona `arada haazal adnaa wa yaqooloona sayughfaru lanaa wa iny yaatihim `aradum misluhoo yaakhuzooh; alam yu`khaz `alaihim `aradum misluhoo yaakhuzooh; alam yu`khaz `alaihim meesaaqul Kitaabi al laa yaqooloo `alal laahi illal haqqa wa darasoo maa feeh; wad Daarul Aakhirtu khairul lillazeena yattaqoon; afalaa ta`qiloon
*129). The Jews knowingly commit sins in the belief that being God's chosen people they will necessarily be pardoned and spared God's punishment. As a result of this misconception, they neither repent nor refrain from committing sins. How unfortunate the Jews are! They received the Scriptures which could have made them leaders of all mankind. But they were so petty-minded that they aspired to nothing higher than paltry worldly benefits. Thus even though they had the potential of becoming the upholders of justice and righteousness across the world they ended up merely as worshippers of this world.
*130). The people of Israel know well that the Torah does not unconditionally assure them salvation. They have never been promised by God or any of His Prophets that they will attain deliverance no matter what they do. Therefore they have absolutely no right to ascribe to God something which He never told them. What makes their crime even worse is that their claim to unconditional salvation constitutes a sacrilege of their covenant with God whereby they pledged never to attribute any false statement to God.
*131). The above verse has two renderings. It may be either translated as above or it may be rendered thus: 'For the righteous, only the home in the Hereafter is the best.' Going by the first rendering, the verse means that salvation is not the exclusive privilege of a particular person or a family. It is absolutely out of the question that one will attain deliverance even if one commits sins, simply on account of being a Jew. A little reflection will help one realize that only the righteous and God-fearing will be rewarded in the Hereafter. In the light of the second rendering, only the unrighteous prefer worldly, gains to reward in the Hereafter. As for the righteous, they are conscious of the importance of the Hereafter and hence forego worldly benefits for the sake of reward in the Next World.
