O mankind! A similitude is coined, so pay ye heed to it: Lo! those on whom ye call beside Allah will never create a fly though they combine together for the purpose. And if the fly took something from them, they could not rescue it from it. So weak are (both) the seeker and the sought!
- Pickthall, Marmaduke
⦿
O people! Listen to a parable that is being drawn: Indeed those whom you invoke besides Allah will never create [even] a fly even if they all rallied to do so! And if a fly should take away something from them, they can not recover that from it. Feeble is the seeker and the sought!
- Qarai, Ali Quli
⦿
People, listen to this parable: Those whom you worship instead of God do not have the power to create even a fly, even though all of them would come together for the task. If the fly was to snatch something from them they would not be able to rescue it from the fly. How feeble are such worshippers and that which they worship.
- Sarwar, Muhammad
⦿
O people! a parable is set forth, therefore listen to it: surely those whom you call upon besides Allah cannot create fly, though they should all gather for it, and should the fly snatch away anything from them, they could not take it back from it; weak are the invoker and the invoked.
- Shakir, Habib
⦿
People, here is an illustration. So listen carefully. Surely, those whom you invoke other than God cannot create even a fly, even if they were all to combine together to do it, and if a fly should snatch anything away from them, they cannot recover it from it. Both are indeed weak, the seeker and the sought.
- Wahiduddin Khan

انسانوں تمہارے لئے ایک مثل بیان کی گئی ہے لہذا اسے غور سے سنو-یہ لوگ جنہیں تم خدا کو چھوڑ کر آواز دیتے ہو یہ سب مل بھی جائیں تو ایک مکھی نہیں پیدا کرسکتے ہیں اور اگر مکھی ان سے کوئی چیز چھین لے تو یہ اس سے چھڑا بھی نہیں سکتے ہیں کہ طالب اور مطلوب دونوں ہی کمزور ہیں
- Jawadi, Zeeshan
⦿
لوگو، ایک مثال دی جاتی ہے، غور سے سنو جن معبودوں کو تم خدا کو چھوڑ کر پکارتے ہو وہ سب مِل کر ایک مکھی بھی پیدا کرنا چاہیں تو نہیں کر سکتے بلکہ اگر مکھی ان سے کوئی چیز چھین لے جائے تو وہ اسے چھڑا بھی نہیں سکتے مدد چاہنے والے بھی کمزور اور جن سے مدد چاہی جاتی ہے وہ بھی کمزور
- Maududi, Abul A'ala
⦿
اے لوگو! ایک کہاوت فرمائی جاتی ہے اسے کان لگا کر سنو وہ جنہیں اللہ کے سوا تم پوجتے ہو ایک مکھی نہ بناسکیں گے اگرچہ سب اس پر اکٹھے ہوجائیں اور اگر مکھی ان سے کچھ چھین کرلے جائے تو اس سے چھڑا نہ سکیں کتنا کمزور چاہنے والا اور وہ جس کو چاہا
- Ahmed Raza
⦿
اے لوگو! ایک مثال دی جاتی ہے اسے غور سے سنو۔ اللہ کو چھوڑ کر تم جن معبودوں کو پکارتے ہو وہ ایک مکھی بھی پیدا نہیں کر سکتے۔ اگرچہ وہ سب کے سب اس کام کے لئے اکٹھے ہو جائیں۔ اور اگر ایک مکھی ان سے کوئی چیز چھین کر لے جائے تو وہ اسے اس (مکھی) سے چھڑا نہیں سکتے۔ طالب و مطلوب دونوں ہی کمزور و ناتواں ہیں۔

They measure not Allah His rightful measure. Lo! Allah is Strong, Almighty.

This website is a work of passion. It exists only for a couple of reasons:

1) I wanted to understand the Book without involving any second-party sources of guidance i.e. exegesis, or Asbab-e-Nuzul, or extra-Quranic ahadith, etc.
2) You must also know what the bare truth is, so we can work together.

Because the process must be transparent, the entire website is available for you to download. You can go through the code, and if you can make any improvements to this process, you are most welcome to. It is a humble request to update me regarding the improvements so I can also update myself.




Due Credits:

This website was possible by help of many people and forums who helped me to learn Arabic, Philosophy, Law, Psychology, and PHP and other Web scripts. To be honest, I do not even know the names of many but I did learn from them. Some of these people were already dead by the time I read their input.

The entire code of this website is available for the same reason, that what they taught me, I can only pay it forward.


The Arabic text of the Quran was obtained from Tanzil. The additional translations were also obtained from Tanzil from this link.

The social-sharing images of verses were obtained from Legacy Quran.com, and were then resized for proper social-media display.
