Surah Al-Imran Ayat 178 (3:178 Quran) With Tafsir

Sahih International
And let not those who disbelieve ever think that [because] We extend their time [of enjoyment] it is better for them. We only extend it for them so that they may increase in sin, and for them is a humiliating punishment.

Yusuf Ali
Let not the Unbelievers think that our respite to them is good for themselves: We grant them respite that they may grow in their iniquity: But they will have a shameful punishment.

Abul Ala Maududi
Do not let the, unbelievers imagine that the respite We give them is good for them. We give them respite so that they may grow in wickedness. A humiliating chastisement lies in store for them.

Muhsin Khan
And let not the disbelievers think that Our postponing of their punishment is good for them. We postpone the punishment only so that they may increase in sinfulness. And for them is a disgracing torment.

Pickthall
And let not those who disbelieve imagine that the rein We give them bodeth good unto their souls. We only give them rein that they may grow in sinfulness. And theirs will be a shameful doom.

Dr. Ghali
And definitely let not the ones who have disbelieved reckon that We reprieve them only (because) it is charitable for themselves; surely We only reprieve them that they might increase in vice, and they will have a degrading torment.

Abdel Haleem
The disbelievers should not think that it is better for them that We give them more time: when We give them more time they become more sinful- a shameful torment awaits them.

Muhammad Junagarhi
کافر لوگ ہماری دی ہوئی مہلت کو اپنے حق میں بہتر نہ سمجھیں، یہ مہلت تو اس لئے ہے کہ وه گناہوں میں اور بڑھ جائیں، ان ہی کے لئے ذلیل کرنے واﻻ عذاب ہے
