How translators rendered it

Translation · 5 editions

These translations render verse 59:3 — the whole verse this word appears in — not this word alone. The correspondence is verse-level: no word-level alignment of translations exists for these editions, so we do not claim which English word renders this Arabic word. Compare the editions →

Had God not decreed exile for them, He would have punished them in this life. But in the Hereafter they will have the punishment of the Fire
Translation · Talal Itani (2012)CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
And if Allah had not decreed migration for them, He verily would have punished them in the world, and theirs in the Hereafter is the punishment of the Fire
Translation · Marmaduke Pickthall (1930)Public Domain
And were it not that God had decreed their exile, surely in this world would he have chastised them: but in the world to come the chastisement of the fire awaiteth them
Translation · John Medows Rodwell (1861)Public Domain
Had it not been that God had prescribed for them banishment, He would have tormented them in this world; but for them in the next shall be the torment of the Fire
Translation · Edward Henry Palmer (1880)Public Domain
and were it not for that he wrote Allah upon them the banishment he punished them in the nearer life and for them in the last punishment of the fire

Generated from a table of word-by-word decisions, not written as prose. Arabic word order is preserved, so it reads stiffly and is not a substitute for a translation written by a person. Every verse is rendered, but the whole remains under review: words marked as judgement rest on weaker evidence than the rest and are flagged in place. No tafsir, hadith or existing translation was consulted.
