Beləcə, insanları onların halından xəbərdar etdik ki, Allahın vədinin həqiqət olduğunu və o Saatın gələcəyinə şübhə olmadığını bilsinlər. O zaman möminlər və kafirlər öz aralarında onların işi barəsində mübahisə edirdilər. Bəziləri: “Onların üstündə bir bina tikin. Rəbbi onların halını daha yaxşı bilir!”– dedilər. Mübahisədə üstün gələnlər isə: “Onların məzarı üstündə mütləq bir məscid tikəcəyik!”– dedilər.

Azerice — V. Memmedeliyev ve Ziya Bünyadov

(İnsanları–Tərsusun əhalisini) onların halı ilə beləcə tanış etdik ki, Allahın (məxluqatın öləndən sonra diriləcəyi haqqındakı) vəʼdinin doğru olduğunu və qiyamətin qopacağına əsla şübhə olmadığını bilsinlər. O zaman (Tərsusdakı möʼminlər və kafirlər) öz aralarında onların (əshabi-kəhfin) işi (və ya insanın öləndən sonra dirilib-dirilməyəcəyi, dirilmənin yalnız ruhla, yaxud ruh və bədənlə birlikdə olacağı kimi dini məsələlər) barəsində mübahisə edirlər. (Nəhayət, əshabi-kəhf öldükdən sonra kafirlər) dedilər: ″Onların üstündə bir bina tikin. Rəbbi (onların öldüyünü, yaxud yenidən yuxuya getdiyini və nəyə eʼtiqad etdiyini) daha yaxşı bilir!″ Onların (əshabi-kəhfin) haqqındakı mübahisədə qalib gələnlər (möʼminlər) isə: ″Onların (məzarı) üstündə (Allaha ibadət etmək məqsədilə) bir məscid tikəcəyik!″ – dedilər.

Almanca — Al-Azhar

Wir ließen die Stadtbewohner sie alsdann entdecken, damit sie erfuhren, daß Gottes Verheißung wahr ist und daß der Jüngste Tag ohne Zweifel kommen wird. Sie stritten dann miteinander, was sie mit ihnen machen sollten. Einige sprachen: ʺErrichtet über ihnen ein Gebäude!ʺ Gott weiß am besten über sie Bescheid. Die Maßgebenden unter ihnen sprachen: ʺWir werden hier eine Gebetsstätte bauen. ʺ

Almanca — Der Edle Quran

So ließen Wir (die Menschen) sie doch entdecken, damit sie wissen, daß Allahs Versprechen wahr ist und daß es an der Stunde keinen Zweifel gibt. Als sie untereinander über ihre Angelegenheit stritten, da sagten sie: ʺErrichtet über ihnen einen Bau. Ihr Herr weiß am besten über sie Bescheid.ʺ Diejenigen, die in ihrer Angelegenheit siegten, sagten: ʺWir werden uns über ihnen ganz gewiß eine Gebetsstätte einrichten.ʺ

Almanca — M. A. Rassoul

Und so ließen Wir sie (die Leute) sie finden, damit sie erkennen mögen, daß Allahs Verheißung wahr ist und daß über die Stunde kein Zweifel herrscht. Und da stritten sie (die Leute) untereinander über sie und sagten: ʺErrichtet über ihnen einen Bau.ʺ Ihr Herr kennt sie am besten. Jene, deren Ansicht siegte, sagten: ʺWir wollen unbedingt eine Moschee über ihnen errichten.ʺ

Almanca — Muhammad Zaidan

Und solcherart ließen WIR sie entdecken, damit sie wissen, daß das Versprechen ALLAHs wahr ist, und daß es über die Stunde (den Jüngsten Tag) keinerlei Zweifel gibt, als sie untereinander in ihrer Angelegenheit stritten. Dann sagten sie: ʺErrichtet über ihnen ein Gebäude, denn ihr HERR weiß besser Bescheid über sie.ʺ Diejenigen, die in ihrer Angelegenheit obsiegten, sagten: ʺWir errichten doch über ihnen eineMoschee .ʺ

Abdel Khalek Himmat

To serve Our purpose We ordained that their identity be revealed so that they, as well as others, would realize that the promise of Allah is truth personified and that the Day of Judgement is a certainty. The aftermath of the event resolved itself in the manner that was inevitably expected. The people who by then had conformed to Allah's will –Christians- debated the number and the event and its significance, some concluding to construct a memorial on the site, others whose decision prevailed resolved to erect a house of worship thereon.

Abdul Haleem

In this way We brought them to people’s attention so that they might know that God’s promise [of resurrection] is true and that there is no doubt about the Last Hour, [though] people argue among themselves. [Some] said, ‘Construct a building over them: their Lord knows best about them.’ Those who prevailed said, ‘We shall build a place of worship over them.’

Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Thus did We make their case known to the people, that they might know that the promise of Allah is true, and that there can be no doubt about the Hour of Judgment. Behold, they dispute among themselves as to their affair. (Some) said, "Construct a building over them": Their Lord knows best about them: those who prevailed over their affair said, "Let us surely build a place of worship over them."

Abul A'la Maududi

Aisha Bewley

Accordingly We made them chance upon them unexpectedly so they might know that Allah’s promise is true and that there is no doubt about the Hour. When they were arguing among themselves about the matter, they said, ‘Wall up their cave, their Lord knows best about them.’ But those who got the better of the argument concerning them said, ‘We will build a place of worship over them.’

Al-Hilali & Khan

And thus We made their case known (to the people), that they might know that the Promise of Allâh is true, and that there can be no doubt about the Hour. (Remember) when they (the people of the city) disputed among themselves about their case, they said: "Construct a building over them; their Lord knows best about them;" (then) those who won their point said (most probably the disbelievers): "We verily shall build a place of worship over them."

Ali Quli Qarai

So it was that We let them come upon them, that they might know that Allah’s promise is true, and that there is no doubt in the Hour. As they were disputing among themselves about their matter, they said, ‘Build a building over them. Their Lord knows them best.’ Those who had the say in their matter said, ‘We will set up a place of worship over them.’

Amatul Rahman Omar

That is how We let (other people) know about them (- their intentions and the real state of their affairs), that people might know that the promise of Allâh is true and that as to the (coming of the promised) hour there is no doubt about it. And (recall the time) when the people (that followed) argued among themselves about their affairs and they said, `Build a monument over them;' their Lord knows them best. Those (of them) who won their point said, `We will certainly build a mosque (- place of worship) over them.'

Arthur John Arberry

And even so We made them stumble upon them, that they might know that God's promise is true, and that the Hour -- there is no doubt of it. When they were contending among themselves of their affair then they said, 'Build over them a building; their Lord knows of them very well.' Said those who prevailed over their affair, 'We will raise over them a place of worship.'

Bijan Moeinian

Thus (when the man went to the city) I revealed their secret (which they, themselves, had not discovered yet) to every one in town (who had embraced Christianity while they were sleeping for some two hundred years) so that they know that the Lord’s promise (about the Resurrection) is nothing but the truth. Then people started to dispute about what they should do with their bodies (when they died shortly after.) Some (the true believers) said: "Let us construct a building over them (and leave them in peace) as this is the Lord’s business. The others (who succeeded in imposing their opinion) said: “Let us build a place of worship over them."

E. Henry Palmer

Thus did we make their people acquainted with their story, that they might know that God's promise is true; and that the Hour, there is no doubt concerning it. When they disputed amongst themselves concerning their affair, and said, 'Build a building over them, their Lord knows best about them;' and those who prevailed in their affair said, 'We will surely make a mosque over them.'

Edip-Layth

Thus We let them be discovered so that they would know that God's promise is true and that there is no doubt regarding the moment. They argued amongst themselves regarding them, so they said, "Erect a monument for them!" Their Lord is fully aware of them. Those who managed to win the argument said, "We will construct a temple over them."

George Sale

And so We made their people acquainted with what had happened to them; that they might know that the promise of God is true, and that there is no doubt of the last hour; when they disputed among themselves concerning their matter. And they said, erect a building over them: Their Lord best knoweth their condition. Those who prevailed in their affair answered, we will surely build a chapel over them.

Hamid S. Aziz

"For should they perceive you, they would stone you, or would force you back again unto their faith, and you would never prosper (or succeed). "

Mahmoud Ghali

And thus We made the (people of the city) discover them that they might know that the promise of Allah is true and that the Hour, there is no suspicion about it. As they were contending among themselves their Command, (The Command of Allah concerning Resurrection; or: their affair) (then) they said, "Build over them a structure; their Lord knows them best." (But) the ones who prevailed over their Command (Literally: overcame them in their Command; or: in their affair) said, "Indeed we will definitely build (Literally: take to ourselves) over them a mosque."

Marmaduke Pickthall

And in like manner We disclosed them (to the people of the city) that they might know that the promise of Allah is true, and that, as for the Hour, there is no doubt concerning it. When (the people of the city) disputed of their case among themselves, they said: Build over them a building; their Lord knoweth best concerning them. Those who won their point said: We verily shall build a place of worship over them.

Mohamed Ahmed - Samira

Thus did We inform the people about them that they may know the promise of God is true, and there is no doubt that the Hour will come. As they were arguing among themselves as to what should be done with them, (some) said: "Erect a monument over them. Their Lord is best cognisant of them." Those who prevailed, said: "We shall build a place of worship over their (sepulchre)."

Muhammad Asad

AND IN THIS way have We drawn [people's] attention to their story, so that they might know - whenever they debate among themselves as to what happened to those [Men of the Cave] that God's promise [of resurrection] is true, and that there can be no doubt as to [the coming of] the Last Hour. And so, some [people] said: "Erect a building in their memory; God knows best what happened to them." Said they whose opinion prevailed in the end: "Indeed, we must surely raise a house of worship in their memory!"

Mustafa Khattab

That is how We caused them to be discovered so that their people might know that Allah’s promise ˹of resurrection˺ is true and that there is no doubt about the Hour.[1] When the people disputed with each other about the case of the youth ˹after their death˺,[2] some proposed, "Build a structure around them. Their Lord knows best about them." Those who prevailed in the matter said, “We will surely build a place of worship over them.”

Progressive Muslims

And as such, We revealed their case so that they would know that God's promise is true and that there is no doubt regarding the Hour. They argued amongst themselves regarding them, so they said: "Erect a monument for them!" Their Lord is fully aware of them, those who managed to win the argument said: "We will construct a temple over them."

Sahih International

And similarly, We caused them to be found that they [who found them] would know that the promise of Allah is truth and that of the Hour there is no doubt. [That was] when they disputed among themselves about their affair and [then] said, "Construct over them a structure. Their Lord is most knowing about them." Said those who prevailed in the matter, "We will surely take [for ourselves] over them a masjid."

Sam Gerrans

“And thus did He acquaint us with them: that they might know that the promise of God is true, and that the Hour — there is no doubt concerning it.” When they contended with one another about their affair, then they said: “Build over them a structure; their Lord best knows concerning them.” Those who prevailed over their affair said: “We will take for them a place of worship.”

Shabbir Ahmed

And in this way We caused them to be discovered (their mission had succeeded), and everyone realized that Allah's Promise is always true. There remained no doubt about the Revolution. (The Dwellers of the Cave were revered by their nation as the Divine Order was restored. Time went by and they passed on. The reverence of the people took a turn). Some people said, "Erect a building in their memory. God knows best their true stature." Others, whose opinion prevailed, said, "Indeed, we must raise a house of worship in their memory." The building in which they would submit to the One True God, like a Masjid. (But they converted the building into a monastery and placed huge tombstones with superstitious inscriptions, another RAQEEM but man-made. The sanctuary became a haven for nuns and monks).

Syed Vickar Ahamed

Thus We made their story known to the people, that they might know that the Promise of Allah is true, and that there may be no doubt about the Hour of Judgment. (Remember) they argued within about their affair. (Some) said, "Construct a building over them:" Their Lord knows best about them: Then those who were in control over their affair said, "Surely, let us build a place of worship over them."

Taqi Usmani

And in this way, We made them known to the people (of the city), so that they realize that Allah’s promise is true, and that there is no doubt about the Hour (the Day of Resurrection). When they were disputing among themselves in their matter, they said, "Erect a building over them. Their Lord knows them best." Said those who prevailed in their matter, “We will certainly make a mosque over them.”

The Monotheist Group

And as such, We revealed their case so that they would know that the promise of God is true and that there is no doubt regarding the Hour. They argued among themselves regarding them, so they said: "Erect a monument for them!" Their Lord is fully aware of them, those who managed to win the argument said: "We will construct a temple over them."

Fransızca — Muhammad Hamidullah

Et cʹest ainsi que Nous fîmes quʹils furent découverts, afin quʹils (les gens de la cité) sachent que la promesse dʹAllah est vérité et quʹil nʹy ait point de doute au sujet de lʹHeure. Aussi se disputèrent-ils à leur sujet et déclarèrent-ils: ʺConstruisez sur eux un édifice. Leur Seigneur les connaît mieuxʺ. Mais ceux qui lʹemportèrent (dans la discussion) dirent: ʺElevons sur eux un sanctuaireʺ.

Zo maakten Wij dat men hen ontdekte, opdat zij zouden weten dat Gods toezegging waar is en dat er aan het uur geen twijfel is. Toen zij met elkaar over hun geval twistten, zeiden zij: ʺBouwt een gebouw over hen heen.ʺ Maar hun Heer kent hen het best. Zij die in hun geval overwonnen zeiden: ʺWij zullen over hen heen een plaats van aanbidding inrichten.ʺ

Hollandaca — Salomo Keyzer

En zoo maakten wij hunne medeburgers bekend met hetgeen wij hen deden wedervaren, opdat zij zouden weten dat de belofte van God waarheid en het jongste uur aan geen twijfel onderhevig is, ofschoon zij daaromtrent onder elkander hebben getwist. En zij zeiden: Richt een gebouw boven de spelonk voor hen op; hun Heer kent het best hunnen toestand. Zij, wier meening in deze zaak besliste, antwoordden: wij zullen zekerlijk eene kapel voor bouwen.

Hollandaca — Siregar

Zo brachten Wij hen de hoogte, opdat zij weten dat de belofte van Allah Waarheid is en dat er gen twijfel aan het Uur is. Toen zij (de mensen in de stad) over hun geval twistten, zeiden zij: ʺBouwt een gebouw over hen heen (als amdenken).ʺ Hun Heer weet beter over hen. Degenen die de overhand kregen over hun geval, zeiden. ʺWij zullen zeker over hen een gebedsruimte maken.ʺ

И так Мы дали знать о них [о тех юношах] (людям, которые жили в их время), чтобы они знали, что обещание Аллаха (о воскрешении) – истина и что Час [наступление Дня Суда] – нет сомнения в нем! Вот они разошлись между собой относительно их дела и сказали: «Постройте над ними [у этой пещеры] сооружение [храм] (чтобы оно закрыло их) (и оставьте этих юношей, ведь) их Господь лучше знает про них». Сказали те, которые держали верх в их деле: «Непременно, мы устроим над ними мечеть!»

Rusça — Osmanov

Итак, Мы поведали людям этот рассказ, чтобы они знали, что обещанное Аллахом - [непреложная] истина и что [Судный] час непременно наступит. [После их смерти] люди [верующие и неверные] разошлись [во мнениях] относительно их [пребывания в пещере], и сказали [неверные]: ʺВоздвигните над ними строение. Их Господь лучше знает о том, кто они естьʺ. А те, мнение которых одержало верх (т. е. верующие), сказали: ʺМы воздвигнем над их [могилами] храмʺ.

SÅ HAR Vi låtit (berättelsen om männen i grottan) bli känd, för att människorna som diskuterar med varandra om deras upplevelser skall veta att Guds löfte är sant och att det inte finns rum för något tvivel om den Yttersta stundens (ankomst). Och (några) sade: ʺLåt bygga för deras (grotta) med en byggnad. Deras Herre vet allt om dem.ʺ De vilkas åsikt vann störst anslutning, sade: ʺLåt oss bygga en helgedom till deras minne!ʺ
