ٱلْإِسْرَاء : ١٠٠

  • قُل Say
  • لَّوۡ If
  • أَنتُمۡ you
  • تَمۡلِكُونَ possess
  • خَزَآئِنَ the treasures
  • رَحۡمَةِ (of) the Mercy
  • رَبِّيٓ (of) my Lord
  • إِذٗا then
  • لَّأَمۡسَكۡتُمۡ surely you would withhold
  • خَشۡيَةَ (out of) fear
  • ٱلۡإِنفَاقِۚ (of) spending
  • وَكَانَ And is
  • ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ man
  • قَتُورٗا stingy
Say [to them], "If you possessed the depositories of the mercy of my Lord, then you would withhold out of fear of spending." And ever has man been stingy.
Say, to them: 'If you possessed the treasuries of my Lord's mercy, [those treasuries] of provision and rain, you would surely withhold [them], [you would] stint, for fear of spending, fearing that they would be depleted if [one] spent [from them] and [that] you would then become impoverished; and man is ever niggardly'.
