Surah 40, ayah 83

فَلَمَّاتو جب
جَآءَتْهُمْآئے ان کے پاس
رُسُلُهُمْان کے رسول
بِالْبَیِّنٰتِساتھ روشن دلائل کے
فَرِحُوْاتو وہ خوش ہوئے
بِمَاساتھ اس کے جو
عِنْدَهُمْان کے پاس تھا
مِّنَسے
الْعِلْمِعلم میں (سے)
وَحَاقَاور گھیر لیا
بِهِمْان کو
مَّاجو
كَانُوْاتھے وہ
بِهٖاس کا
یَسْتَهْزِءُوْنَوہ مذاق اڑاتے
۟

Translation and commentary

Tafheem-ul-Quran

جب ان کے رسُول ان کے پاس بیّنات لے کر آئے تو وہ اُسی علم میں مگن رہے جو ان کے اپنے پاس تھا،¹اور پھر اُسی چیز کے پھیر میں آگئے جس کا وہ مذاق اُڑاتے تھے

Footnotes (the author's commentary)

یعنی اپنے فلسفے اور سائنس، اپنے قانون، اپنے دنیوی علوم، اور اپنے پیشواؤں کے گھڑے ہوۓ مذہبی افسانوں (Mythology)اور دینیات (Theology)ہی کو انہوں نے اصل علم سمجھا اور انبیاء علیہم السلام کے لاۓ ہوۓ علم کو ہیچ سمجھ کر اس کی طرف کوئی التفات نہ کیا۔
