O ye who believe! Retaliation is prescribed for you in the matter of the murdered; the freeman for the freeman, and the slave for the slave, and the female for the female. And for him who is forgiven somewhat by his (injured) brother, prosecution according to usage and payment unto him in kindness. This is an alleviation and a mercy from your Lord. He who transgresseth after this will have a painful doom. - Pickthall, Marmaduke
⦿
O you who have faith! Retribution is prescribed for you regarding the slain: freeman for freeman, slave for slave, and female for female. But if one is granted any extenuation by his brother, let the follow up [for the blood-money] be honourable, and let the payment to him be with kindness. That is a remission from your Lord and a mercy; and should anyone transgress after that, there shall be a painful punishment for him. - Qarai, Ali Quli
⦿
Believers, in case of murder, the death penalty is the sanctioned retaliation: a free man for a free man, a slave for a slave, and a female for a female. However, if the convicted person receives pardon from the aggrieved party, the prescribed rules of compensation must be followed accordingly. This is a merciful alteration from your Lord. Whoever transgresses against it will face a painful punishment. - Sarwar, Muhammad
⦿
O you who believe! retaliation is prescribed for you in the matter of the slain, the free for the free, and the slave for the slave, and the female for the female, but if any remission is made to any one by his (aggrieved) brother, then prosecution (for the bloodwit) should be made according to usage, and payment should be made to him in a good manner; this is an alleviation from your Lord and a mercy; so whoever exceeds the limit after this he shall have a painful chastisement. - Shakir, Habib
⦿
Believers, retribution is prescribed for you in cases of murder: the free man for the free man, the slave for the slave, the female for the female. If the offender is granted some remission by the heir of the slain person, the agreed penalty should be equitably exacted and should be discharged in a handsome manner. This is an alleviation from your Lord and an act of grace. He who transgresses after this shall have a painful punishment. - Wahiduddin Khan

ایمان والو! تمہارے اوپر مقتولین کے بارے میں قصاص لکھ دیا گیا ہے آزادکے بدلے آزاد اورغلام کے بدلے غلام اور عورت کے بدلے عورت. اب اگرکسی کو مقتول کے وارث کی طرف سے معافی مل جائے تو نیکی کا اتباع کرے اور احسان کے ساتھ اس کے حق کو ادا کردے. یہ پروردگار کی طرف سے تمہارے حق میں تخفیف اور رحمت ہے لیکن اب جو شخص زیادتی کرے گا اس کے لئے دردناک عذاب بھی ہے - Jawadi, Zeeshan
⦿
ا ے لوگو جو ایمان لائے ہو، تمہارے لیے قتل کے مقدموں میں قصاص کا حکم لکھ دیا گیا ہے آزاد آدمی نے قتل کیا ہو تو اس آزاد ہی سے بدلہ لیا جائے، غلام قاتل ہو تو وہ غلام ہی قتل کیا جائے، اور عورت اِس جرم کی مرتکب ہو توا س عورت ہی سے قصاص لیا جائے ہاں اگر کسی قاتل کے ساتھ اس کا بھائی کچھ نرمی کرنے کے لیے تیار ہو، تو معروف طریقے کے مطابق خوں بہا کا تصفیہ ہونا چاہیے اور قاتل کو لازم ہے کہ راستی کے ساتھ خوں بہا ادا کرے یہ تمہارے رب کی طرف سے تخفیف اور رحمت ہے اس پر بھی جو زیادتی کرے، اس کے لیے دردناک سزا ہے - Maududi, Abul A'ala
⦿
اے ایمان والوں تم پر فرض ہے کہ جو ناحق مارے جائیں ان کے خون کا بدلہ لو آزاد کے بدلے آزاد اور غلام کے بدلے غلام اور عورت کے بدلے عورت تو جس کے لئے اس کے بھائی کی طرف سے کچھ معافی ہوئی۔ تو بھلائی سے تقا ضا ہو اور اچھی طرح ادا، یہ تمہارے رب کی طرف سے تمہارا بوجھ پر ہلکا کرنا ہے اور تم پر رحمت تو اس کے بعد جو زیادتی کرے اس کے لئے دردناک عذاب ہے - Ahmed Raza
⦿
اے ایمان والو! ان کے بارے میں جو (ناحق قتل کر دیئے گئے ہوں) تم پر قصاص (خون کا بدلہ خون) لکھ دیا گیا ہے یعنی آزاد کے بدلے آزاد، غلام کے بدلے غلام اور عورت کے بدلے عورت۔ ہاں جس (قاتل) کے لیے اس کے (ایمانی) بھائی (مقتول کے ولی) کی جانب سے کچھ (قصاص) معاف کر دیا جائے تو اس (معاف کرنے والے) کو (چاہیے کہ) نیکی کا اتباع کرے (خون بہا کا مطالبہ کرنے میں سختی نہ کرے) اور (جسے معاف کیا گیا ہے اسے بھی چاہیے کہ) خوش اسلوبی کے ساتھ (خون بہا) ادا کرے۔ یہ تمہارے پروردگار کی طرف سے رعایت و رحمت (اور آسانی و مہربانی) ہے۔ پس اس کے بعد بھی جو زیادتی کرے تو اس کیلئے دردناک عذاب ہے - Najafi, Muhammad
