Translations

Pickthall — Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall

How should we not put our trust in Allah when He hath shown us our ways? We surely will endure the hurt ye do us. In Allah let the trusting put their trust.

Yusuf Ali — Abdullah Yusuf Ali

"No reason have we why we should not put our trust on Allah. Indeed He Has guided us to the Ways we (follow). We shall certainly bear with patience all the hurt you may cause us. For those who put their trust should put their trust on Allah."

تفسير ابن كثير — Ismail ibn Kathir

ثم قالت الرسل : ( وما لنا ألا نتوكل على الله ) أي : وما يمنعنا من التوكل عليه ، وقد هدانا لأقوم الطرق وأوضحها وأبينها ، ( ولنصبرن على ما آذيتمونا ) أي : من الكلام السيئ ، والأفعال السخيفة ، ( وعلى الله فليتوكل المتوكلون )
