English Translation
Here you can read various translations of verse 114
No good is there in much of their private conversation, except for those who enjoin charity or that which is right or conciliation between people. And whoever does that seeking means to the approval of Allah – then We are going to give him a great reward.
In most of their secret talks there is no good: But if one exhorts to a deed of charity or justice or conciliation between men, (Secrecy is permissible): To him who does this, seeking the good pleasure of Allah, We shall soon give a reward of the highest (value).
Most of their secret conferrings are devoid of good, unless one secretly enjoins in charity, good deeds, and setting the affairs of men right. We shall grant who ever does that seeking to please Allah a great reward.
There is no good in most of their secret talks save (in) him who orders Sadaqah (charity in Allah’s Cause), or Ma’ruf (Islamic Monotheism and all the good and righteous deeds which Allah has ordained), or conciliation between mankind, and he who does this, seeking the good Pleasure of Allah, We shall give him a great reward.
There is no good in much of their secret conferences save (in) him who enjoineth almsgiving and kindness and peace-making among the people. Whoso doeth that, seeking the good pleasure of Allah, We shall bestow on him a vast reward.
No charity (i.e. benefit) is there in much of their private conferences, except for him who commands donation (i.e. enjoins “people” to donate), or beneficence, or righteousness (Or: conciliation and reform) among mankind. And whoever performs that seeking the gracious satisfaction of Allah, then We will eventually bring him a magnificent reward.
There is no good in most of their secret talk, only in commanding charity, or good, or reconciliation between people. To anyone who does these things, seeking to please God, We shall give a rich reward;
ان کے اکثر خفیہ مشوروں میں کوئی خیر نہیں، ہاں! بھلائی اس کے مشورے میں ہے جو خیرات کا یا نیک بات کا یا لوگوں میں صلح کرانے کا حکم کرے اور جو شخص صرف اللہ تعالیٰ کی رضامندی حاصل کرنے کے ارادے سے یہ کام کرے اسے ہم یقیناً بہت بڑا ﺛواب دیں گے
