Perhaps you may destroy yourself with grief, chasing after them, if they do not believe in this information.
What does the Qur'an say about the Prophet's grief for those who wouldn't believe?
Key findingsEditorial
One finding for each passage this study carries, in the order the study reads them. Each is the reason that passage was signed into the study, in full and unedited - including, where the renderings disagree, the disagreement.
- 01 18:6 YET IT MAY BE, IF THEY BELIEVE NOT IN THIS STATEMENT, THAT THOU WILT TORMENT THY SOUL WITH GRIEF OVER THEIR FOOTSTEPS. In because it is the sharpest of these verses - it anticipates him destroying himself over people who walk away, and the image is of him watching their tracks.
- 02 26:3 IT MAY BE THAT THOU TORMENTEST THYSELF because they believe not. In because it is the same concern in the shortest form, opening a surah.
- 03 35:8 So let not thy soul EXPIRE IN SIGHINGS FOR THEM. Lo, God is Aware of what they do. In because the remedy offered is not consolation but information - God knows - and because the four translators all reach for a word about breath and exhaustion.
- 04 16:127 Endure thou patiently. Thy endurance is only by the help of God. AND GRIEVE NOT FOR THEM, AND BE NOT IN DISTRESS BECAUSE OF THAT WHICH THEY DEVISE. In because it names two separate states - grief at their refusal, and anxiety at their plotting - and forbids both.
- 05 28:56 LO, THOU GUIDEST NOT WHOM THOU LOVEST, but God guideth whom He will. And He is best aware of those who walk aright. In because it is the most personal verse in the set - the word is LOVE - and because it removes the outcome from his hands entirely.
- 06 10:99 And if thy Lord willed, all who are in the earth would have believed together. WOULDST THOU COMPEL MEN UNTIL THEY ARE BELIEVERS? In because it answers the grief with a question, and the question makes the alternative to his failure look worse than the failure.
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation
Six verses, and their subject is a man who is taking rejection too hard.
18:6 is the most vivid: IT MAY BE THAT THOU WILT TORMENT THY SOUL WITH GRIEF OVER THEIR FOOTSTEPS - a picture of someone watching people walk away and grieving over the tracks they leave. 26:3 says the same thing in half a line at the opening of a surah. And 35:8 asks him not to LET HIS SOUL EXPIRE IN SIGHINGS for them; the word all four translators reach for is about breath running out.
That the text says this repeatedly is itself the finding. The Qur'an describes its own messenger as suffering over the refusal of his audience, and describes it in terms of physical exhaustion.
The answers given are not comfort. They are three removals of responsibility.
10:99 answers with a question: if God had willed, everyone on earth would have believed - WOULDST THOU COMPEL MEN UNTIL THEY ARE BELIEVERS? The alternative to his failure is coercion, and the question assumes he would not want it.
35:8 answers with information: God IS AWARE OF WHAT THEY DO. Not a promise of change - a statement that it is being seen.
28:56 is the one that carries the most weight, and it is personal in a way little else in the Qur'an is: LO, THOU GUIDEST NOT WHOM THOU LOVEST. The verse concedes the love and denies the power in one clause.
16:127 separates two states and forbids both - grieving over their refusal, and being distressed by their plotting - and grounds the endurance in help rather than in effort.
Scope of this study
This platform shows the verse, its easy-read line, its translations, a plain-words reading, and each verse among its neighbours. It does not supply occasion of revelation, interpretation (tafsir) or history, and it never invents them.
What this study does not answer, and which source would be needed. It does not say on what occasion any of these verses was given: this study holds no source whose usage rights can be verified. It does not report how any commentator has read them: this study holds no either - the Arabic of , and is public domain by age, but no English edition with verifiable usage rights exists. And it offers no academic-historical reading: this study holds no such scholarship. Each of those is an absence with a named cause, not an omission.
What this rests on
Opens with 18:6, widening across 6 passages in all.
Easy-read
Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation, not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading. Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the same edition and their orthography differs.
The versesSource fact 6 passages, each with every cleared translation
6 passages, chosen for this question and signed as part of it. Each carries the reason it is here, and each renders in full: the Arabic, then every cleared translation of that verse under its translator's name.
Each verse opens on the translation that comes first in the site's fixed order, which runs from the newest translation to the oldest. The order is not a preference. Open Compare translations on any verse to read the others.

Haply thou wilt grieve thyself to death for sorrow after them, if they believe not in this new revelation

Peradventure thou wilt kill thy self with grief after them, out of thy earnest zeal for their conversion, if they believe not in this new revelation of the Koran

Mos vallë do ta shkatërrosh veten nga pikëllimi për ta, nëse ata nuk besojnë në këtë Fjalë (Kuran)?!
তারা যদি এ বাণীর(আল কুরআনের) প্রতি ঈমান না আনে, তবে মনে হয় তুমি তাদের পেছনে আফসোস করতে করতে নিজেকে প্রায় ধ্বংস করে ফেলবে।(৩)
Pa zar ćeš ti za njima od tuge svisnuti, ako oni u govor ovaj neće povjerovati?
Pa zar ćeš ti za njima od tuge svisnuti, ako oni u govor ovaj neće povjerovati?
Mbele jo'o aan a tanpinat hoore-maa e dow batteeji maɓɓe, si ngooŋɗinaani ndee Yewtere ka suno.
ნუთუ შენ [ო, შუამავალო] მზად ხარ, რომ თავი დაიღუპო მწუხარებით მათ გამო [შენი ხალხის გამო], რადგან იმათ არ ირწმუნეს ეს შეგონება [ყურანი]?
So magst du vielleicht nach ihrer Abwendung noch dich selbst umbringen, wenn sie nicht an diese Botschaft glauben, und dies aus Bedauern.
(Ω, Μωχάμμαντ) θα κατέστρεφες τον εαυτό σου από τη θλίψη (γι' εκείνους τους άπιστους) αφού αποστράφηκαν, επειδή δεν πιστεύουν σ' αυτό τον λόγο (το Κορ’άν); [Μη λυπάσαι γι' αυτούς, επειδή αν ο Αλλάχ ήξερε ότι υπάρχει καλοσύνη μέσα τους, θα τους είχε καθοδηγήσει, αλλά η ευθύνη σου είναι μόνο να διαβιβάσεις το μήνυμα ξεκάθαρα].
ऐसा लगता है कि यदि वे इस 'हदीस' (क़ुरआन) पर ईमान नहीं लाए, तो आप इनके पीछे दुःख से अपना प्राण ही खो देंगे।
Forse tu ti affliggi a causa loro: se non credono a questo messaggio, ti arrabbi.
6. Galbūt tu nusižudytum (Muchammedai ﷺ) iš sielvarto dėl jų žingsnių (dėl jų nusigręžimo nuo tavęs), nes jie netiki šiuo pasakojimu (Koranu).

Быть может, ты погубишь себя от скорби по их следам, если они не уверуют в это повествование?
Па зар ћеш да уништиш себе од туге за њима, ако они у Кур'ан неће да поверују?!
Huenda ukajihiliki nafsi yako kwa ajili yao, kuwasikitikia kwa kuwa hawayaamini mazungumzo haya!
Kommer du kanske att gå under av sorg över att de vägrar tro på denna skrift?
Belki de sen, bu kitaba iman etmiyorlar diye onların arkasından üzüntüden kendini helâk edeceksin.
پس اگر یہ لوگ اس بات[1] پر ایمان نہ ﻻئیں تو کیا آپ ان کے پیچھے اسی رنج میں اپنی جان ہلاک کر ڈالیں گے؟

ნუთუ ის, ვისაც (სატანამ) ლამაზად წარმოუჩინა თავისი ბოროტი საქმე, და მან იგი ლამაზად დაინახა, (ჰგავს იმას, ვისაც ალლაჰმა რწმენა უბოძა და ჭეშმარიტ გზაზე დააყენა, და ვინც კარგს კარგად ხედავს, ხოლო ცუდს — ცუდად)? ჭეშმარიტად, ალლაჰი აცდენს გზას, ვისაც ინებებს, და სწორ გზაზე აყენებს, ვისაც ინებებს. მაშ, ნუ დაიღლება შენი სული მათზე [ურწმუნოებზე] დარდით. ჭეშმარიტად, ალლაჰმა იცის, რასაც ისინი აკეთებენ!
Soll denn derjenige, dem sein schlechtes Tun ausgeschmückt wird und der es dann für schön befindet, (wie jemand sein, der rechtgeleitet ist)? So lässt Allah in die Irre gehen, wen Er will, und Er leitet recht, wen Er will. Darum soll deine Seele nicht über sie in Bedauern zergehen. Wahrlich, Allah ist wissend über das, was sie machen.
Είναι αυτός στα μάτια του οποίου ωραιοποιήθηκαν (από τον Σατανά) οι κακές πράξεις του, και έτσι τις είδε ως καλές, (σαν αυτόν που τον καθοδήγησε ο Αλλάχ και βλέπει το καλό ως καλό, και το κακό ως κακό); Πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ (με τη δικαιοσύνη Του) κάνει όποιον θέλει να παραστρατήσει, και (με τη χάρη Του) καθοδηγεί όποιον θέλει. Μην καταστρέψεις λοιπόν (ω, Προφήτη) τον εαυτό σου με θλίψη γι' αυτούς (που επιμένουν στην απιστία τους). Πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ είναι για ό,τι κάνουν, Παντογνώστης.
तो क्या वह व्यक्ति जिसके लिए उसके कुकर्म को सुंदर बना दिया गया हो, तो वह उसे अच्छा समझता हो, (उसके समान है जो मार्गदर्शन पर है?) निःसंदेह अल्लाह जिसे चाहता है, गुमराह कर देता है और जिसे चाहता है, मार्गदर्शन प्रदान करता है। अतः आप उनपर अफ़सोस के कारण अपने आपको व्यथित न करें। निःसंदेह अल्लाह उसे भली-भाँति जानने वाला है जो कुछ वे कर रहे हैं।
Ma colui al quale sono state abbellite le proprie azioni malvagie e le ha considerate buone? In verità Allāh svia chi vuole e guida chi vuole: non devi affliggerti per loro. In verità Allāh sa bene ciò che fanno.
8. Argi tada tas, kuriam jo darbų blogis padarytas atrodančiu teisingu taip, kad jis laiko tai geru (lygus tam, kuris yra teisingai vedamas)? Iš tiesų, Allahas paklaidina ką Jis nori, ir išveda ką Jis nori. Taigi nesusinaikink (Muchammedai ﷺ) liūdėsyje dėl jų. Iš tiesų, Allahas yra Visa Žinantis apie tai, ką jie daro.
Sila namni fokkataan hojii isaa isaaf bareechifame, kan bareedaa taasisee isa ilaalu (isa karaa qajeelaa irra jiruu wajjin wal qixa ta’aa)? Allaahn nama fedhe ni jallisa; nama fedhe immoo ni qajeelcha. Isaan irratti lubbuun kee sheenaadhaan akka hin baane. Allaahn waan isaan hojjatan beekaadha.
Неужели тот, кому приукрашен его дурной поступок, и он счёл его хорошим, [подобен праведному]? Воистину, Аллах вводит в заблуждение, кого пожелает, и наставляет на верный путь, кого пожелает. Так не скорби же о них до изнеможения. Воистину, Аллах — знающий о том, что они делают.
Како могу бити исти: онај коме су његова ружна дела приказана лепим, а и он их сматра лепим? Аллах у заблуди оставља оног кога хоће, а на Прави пут указује оном коме хоће, па не изгарај од жалости за њима. Аллах, заиста, добро зна све што они раде.
Je, yule aliyepambiwa matendo yake mabaya na akayaona ni mema - basi hakika Mwenyezi Mungu humpoteza amtakaye, na humwongoa amtakaye. Basi, nafsi yako isijihiliki kwa kuwasikitikia. Hakika Mwenyezi Mungu anajua vyema wanayoyafanya.
Kan någon vars onda handlingar förskönats för honom och därför ser dem som något gott [likställas med någon som gör verkligt gott]? Gud vilseleder vem han vill och vägleder vem han vill. Förgås inte av sorg över dem; Gud har full vetskap om vad de gör.
Kötü ameli kendine süslü gösterilen ve böylece onu güzel gören kimse (doğru yolda olanla bir midir)? Şüphesiz Allah dilediğini sapıklığa düşürür dilediğini de doğru yola eriştirir. Öyleyse nefsin onlara karşı hasretlere (üzüntülere) kapılmasın. Şüphesiz Allah onların yaptıklarını bilmektedir.
کیا پس وه شخص جس کے لئے اس کے برے اعمال مزین کردیئے گئے ہیں پس وه انہیں اچھاسمجھتا[1] ہے (کیا وه ہدایت یافتہ شخص جیسا ہے)، (یقین مانو) کہ اللہ جسے چاہے گمراه کرتا ہے اور جسے چاہے راه راست دکھاتا ہے[2]۔ پس آپ کو ان پر غم کھا کھا کر اپنی جان ہلاکت میں نہ ڈالنی چاہیئے[3]، یہ جو کچھ کر رہے ہیں اس سے یقیناً اللہ تعالیٰ بخوبی واقف ہے.[4]

Whoever desires honor-all honor belongs to God. To Him ascends speech that is pure, and He elevates righteous conduct. As for those who plot evil, a terrible punishment awaits them, and the planning of these will fail.
Whoso desireth power (should know that) all power belongeth to Allah. Unto Him good words ascend, and the pious deed doth He exalt; but those who plot iniquities, theirs will be an awful doom; and the plotting of such (folk) will come to naught
Whosoever desires honour - honour belongs wholely to God; to Him good words ascend, and a righteous deed He takes up; and those who plot evil deeds, for them is keen torment, and their plotting is in vain
If any one desireth greatness, all greatness is in God. The good word riseth up to Him, and the righteous deed will He exalt. But a severe punishment awaiteth the plotters of evil things; and the plots of such will He render vain
Whoever desireth excellence; unto God doth all excellence belong: Unto Him ascendeth the good speech; and the righteous work will He exalt. But as for them who devise wicked plots, they shall suffer a severe punishment; and the device of those men shall be rendered vain

Endure thou patiently (O Muhammad). Thine endurance is only by (the help of) Allah. Grieve not for them, and be not in distress because of that which they devise
Be thou patient then; but thy patience is only in God's hands. Do not grieve about them; and be not in a strait at their craftiness
Endure then with patience. But thy patient endurance must be sought in none but God. And be not grieved about the infidels, and be not troubled at their devices

निःसंदेह आप उसे हिदायत नहीं दे सकते जिसे आप चाहें,[18] परंतु अल्लाह हिदायत देता है जिसे चाहता है और वह हिदायत पाने वालों को अधिक जानने वाला है।
In verità tu non puoi guidare chi ami, ma Allāh guida chi vuole e Lui conosce meglio i ben guidati.
56. Iš tiesų tu (Muchammedai ﷺ) nevedi tų, kuriuos tu nori, tačiau Allahas veda tuos, kuriuos Jis nori. Ir Jis žino geriausiai tuos, kurie yra vedami.
Ati nama jaallatte hin qajeelchitu, Garuu Allaahtu nama fedhe qajeelcha. Inni warra qajeelan beekaadha.
Воистину, ты не наставишь того, кого любишь, но Аллах наставляет на верный путь, кого пожелает. И Он лучше знает тех, кто следует верным путём.
Ти, заиста, не можеш упутити на Прави пут оног кога ти желиш да упутиш. Аллах указује на Прави пут оном коме Он хоће, и Он добро зна оне који ће Правим путем поћи.
Kwa hakika, wewe humwongoi umpendaye. Lakini Mwenyezi Mungu humwongoa amtakaye. Na Yeye ndiye anawajua zaidi waongokao.
Du kan inte vägleda den du älskar men Gud vägleder den han vill, och han vet bäst vilka som lämpar sig för vägledning.
Şüphesiz sen, sevdiklerine hidayet edemezsin. Fakat Allah, dilediğine hidayet eder. Hidayete erecek olanları en iyi O bilir.
آپ جسے چاہیں ہدایت نہیں کر سکتے بلکہ اللہ تعالیٰ ہی جسے چاہے ہدایت کرتا ہے۔ ہدایت والوں سے وہی خوب آگاه ہے.[1]

And how many a city did We destroy for turning unappreciative of its livelihood? Here are their homes, uninhabited after them, except for a few. And We became the Inheritors.

How many a city have we destroyed that exulted in its means of subsistence? These are their dwellings, never dwelt in after them, except a little; for we were the heirs

And if thy Lord willed, all who are in the earth would have believed together. Wouldst thou (Muhammad) compel men until they are believers
But had thy Lord pleased, all who are in the earth would have believed altogether; as for thee, wilt thou force men to become believers

What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it4 of the 5 paragraphs signed with this study; the paragraph naming what it does not answer is at the top of the page
The selection above and this account of it are part of what was signed. Where the renderings disagree it says so; where the question runs past what has cleared the rights audit it says that too.
Read across the four public-domain translations - Sale 1734, Rodwell 1861, Palmer 1880, Pickthall 1930 - of 18:6, 26:3, 35:8, 16:127, 28:56, 10:99, in full, and nothing else. This study consults no , no , no occasion of revelation and no biography, because none is yet available in an edition whose usage rights can be verified. Itani 2012, the fifth translation shown with these verses, was not consulted for this study.
How this set was arrived at. The verses were found by a word search of the four public-domain translations, using terms chosen by the editor and listed here as they were searched - torment + thyself; consume + thyself; destroy + thyself + grieving; grieve + not + for + them; thou + canst + not + guide + whom + thou + lovest. The search was a way of finding passages, not a judgement about what they mean: that several translators chose the same English word is not evidence about the Arabic. A different choice of terms gives a different set.
What was returned and not carried. 2 verse(s) the search qualified are recorded as not carried with a reason each, rather than silently discarded: 2:62 - matched incidentally; it belongs to the salvation question; 2:262 - carried by open-vs-secret-giving.
Where the translations part company, named rather than resolved. How differently the translations word each verse is shown on that verse's page, and the study names the differences it turns on rather than choosing between them.
