Sahih International
And why should we not rely upon Allah while He has guided us to our [good] ways. And we will surely be patient against whatever harm you should cause us. And upon Allah let those who would rely [indeed] rely.”

Yusuf Ali
“No reason have we why we should not put our trust on Allah. Indeed He Has guided us to the Ways we (follow). We shall certainly bear with patience all the hurt you may cause us. For those who put their trust should put their trust on Allah.”

Abul Ala Maududi
And why should we not put our trust in Allah when it is indeed He Who has guided us to the ways of our life? We shall surely continue to remain steadfast in face of your persecution. All those who have to put trust, should put their trust only in Allah.”

Muhsin Khan
“And why should we not put our trust in Allah while He indeed has guided us our ways. And we shall certainly bear with patience all the hurt you may cause us, and in Allah (Alone) let those who trust, put their trust.”

Pickthall
How should we not put our trust in Allah when He hath shown us our ways? We surely will endure the hurt ye do us. In Allah let the trusting put their trust.

Dr. Ghali
And what (evidence) have we that we should not put our trust in (Literally: on) Allah and He has already guided us in our ways? And indeed we will definitely (endure) patiently whatever (way) you have hurt us, and in Allah let the trusting ones then put their trust.”

Abdel Haleem
why should we not put our trust in God when it is He who has guided us to this way we follow? We shall certainly bear steadfastly whatever harm you do to us. Let anyone who trusts, trust in God.’

Muhammad Junagarhi
آخر کیا وجہ ہے کہ ہم اللہ تعالیٰ پر بھروسہ نہ رکھیں جبکہ اسی نے ہمیں ہماری راہیں سمجھائی ہیں۔ واللہ جو ایذائیں تم ہمیں دو گے ہم ان پر صبر ہی کریں گے۔ توکل کرنے والوں کو یہی ﻻئق ہے کہ اللہ ہی پر توکل کریں
