Waallatheena kafaroo aAAmaluhumkasarabin biqeeAAatin yahsabuhu alththam-anumaan hatta itha jaahu lamyajidhu shay-an wawajada Allaha AAindahu fawaffahu hisabahuwaAllahu sareeAAu alhisabi والذين كفروا أعمالهم كسراب بقيعة يحسبه الظمآن ماء حتى إذا جاءه لم يجده شيئا ووجد الله عنده فوفاه حسابه والله سريع الحساب
وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَعْمَالُهُمْ كَسَرَابٍ بِقِيعَةٍ يَحْسَبُهُ الظَّمْآنُ مَاءً حَتَّى إِذَا جَاءَهُ لَمْ يَجِدْهُ شَيْئًا وَوَجَدَ اللَّهَ عِندَهُ فَوَفَّاهُ حِسَابَهُ وَاللَّهُ سَرِيعُ الْحِسَابِ
Tahir ul Qadri

  اور کافروں کے اعمال چٹیل میدان میں سراب کی مانند ہیں جس کو پیاسا پانی سمجھتا ہے۔ یہاں تک کہ جب اس کے پاس آتا ہے تو اسے کچھ (بھی) نہیں پاتا (اسی طرح اس نے آخرت میں) اللہ کو اپنے پاس پایا مگر اللہ نے اس کا پورا حساب (دنیا میں ہی) چکا دیا تھا، اور اللہ جلد حساب کرنے والا ہے

Yousuf AliBut the Unbelievers,- their deeds are like a mirage in sandy deserts, which the man parched with thirst mistakes for water; until when he comes up to it, he finds it to be nothing: But he finds Allah (ever) with him, and Allah will pay him his account: and Allah is swift in taking account.

Ahmed Aliاور جو کافر ہیں ان کے اعمال ایسے ہیں جیسے جنگل میں چمکتی ہوئی ریت ہو جسے پیاسا پانی سمجھتا ہے یہاں تک کہ جب اس کے پاس آتا ہے اسے کچھ بھی نہیں پاتا اور الله ہی کو اپنے پاس پاتا ہے پھر الله نے اس کا حساب پورا کر دیا اور الله جلد حساب لینے والا ہے
Ahmed Raza Khanاور جو کافر ہوئے ان کے کام ایسے ہیں جیسے دھوپ میں چمکتا ریتا کسی جنگل میں کہ پیاسا اسے پانی سمجھے، یہاں تک جب اس کے پاس آیا تو اسے کچھ نہ پایا اور اللہ کو اپنے قریب پایا تو اس نے اس کا حساب پورا بھردیا، اور اللہ جلد حساب کرلیتا ہے
Shabbir Ahmed اور وہ لوگ جنہوں نے کفر کیا ان کے اعمال کی مثال سرابِ صحرا کی سی ہے جسے سمجھتا ہے پیاسا پانی۔ یہاں تک کہ جب آتا ہے وہ اس کے پاس تو نہیں پاتا اُسے کچھ بھی موجود پاتا ہے اللہ کو وہاں جو پُورا پُورا چکا دیتا ہے اس کو حساب اُس کا اور اللہ جلد حساب چُکانے والا ہے۔
Fateh Muhammad Jalandharyجن لوگوں نے کفر کیا ان کے اعمال کی مثال ایسی ہے جیسے میدان میں ریت کہ پیاسا اسے پانی سمجھے یہاں تک کہ جب اس کے پاس آئے تو اسے کچھ بھی نہ پائے اور خدا ہی کو اپنے پاس دیکھے تو وہ اسے اس کا حساب پورا پورا چکا دے۔ اور خدا جلد حساب کرنے والا ہے
Mehmood Al Hassanاور جو لوگ منکر ہیں ان کے کام جیسے ریت جنگل میں پیاسا جانے اس کو پانی یہاں تک کہ جب پہنچا اس پر اس کو کچھ نہ پایا اور اللہ کو پایا اپنے پاس پھر اسکو پورا پہنچا دیا اس کا لکھا اور اللہ جلد لینے والا ہے حساب

It is light upon light. God guides to His light whomever He wants. God uses various metaphors. He has the knowledge of all things.
