Sahih International
He said, “O my people, have you considered: if I should be upon clear evidence from my Lord and He has given me mercy from Himself, who would protect me from Allah if I disobeyed Him? So you would not increase me except in loss.

Yusuf Ali
He said: “O my people! do ye see? if I have a Clear (Sign) from my Lord and He hath sent Mercy unto me from Himself,- who then can help me against Allah if I were to disobey Him? What then would ye add to my (portion) but perdition?

Abul Ala Maududi
Salih said: ‘My people! What do you think? If I had a clear evidence from my Lord, and then He also bestowed His mercy upon me, who will rescue me from the punishment of Allah if I still disobey Him? You can only make me lose even more.

Muhsin Khan

Pickthall
He said: O my people! Bethink you: if I am (acting) on clear proof from my Lord and there hath come unto me a mercy from Him, who will save me from Allah if I disobey Him? Ye would add to me naught save perdition.

Dr. Ghali
He said, “O my people, have you seen (that) in case I (rely) on Supreme evidence from my Lord, and He has brought me a mercy from Him, so who will vindicate me against Allah in case I disobey Him? Then in no way would you increase me in anything other than in causing losses.

Abdel Haleem

Muhammad Junagarhi
اس نے جواب دیا کہ اے میری قوم کے لوگو! ذرا بتاؤ تو اگر میں اپنے رب کی طرف سے کسی مضبوط دلیل پر ہوا اور اس نے مجھے اپنے پاس کی رحمت عطا کی ہو، پھر اگر میں نے اس کی نافرمانی کر لی تو کون ہے جو اس کے مقابلے میں میری مدد کرے؟ تم تو میرا نقصان ہی بڑھا رہے ہو

Quran 11 Verse 63 Explanation

For those looking for commentary to help with the understanding of Surah Hud ayat 63, we’ve provided two Tafseer works below. The first is the tafseer of Abul Ala Maududi, the second is of Ibn Kathir.

Ala-Maududi

(11:63) Salih said: ‘My people! What do you think? If I had a clear evidence from my Lord, and then He also bestowed His mercy upon me, who will rescue me from the punishment of Allah if I still disobey Him? You can only make me lose even more.[73]


73. This is the answer to the preceding question: If I disobey Allah by discarding the guidance I have received from Him in order to please you, you cannot defend me against Him. You will rather add to the intensity of my guilt of disobedience to Him. Thus I shall incur additional punishment from Him for misleading you instead of showing the right way for which I had been sent to you.
