3:169 wa laa taHsaban-nal-ladhiyna qutiluu fiy sabiylil-laahi amwaataa* bal aHyaaun 'Inda rab-bihim yurzaquun
Ahmed Raza Khan: Mohammed Aqib Qadri:
And do not ever assume that those who
are slain in Allah's cause, are dead; in fact they are alive with their
Lord, receiving sustenance. (Death does not mean extinction, it is the
passing of the soul from this world to another. In case of virtuous believers,
their bodies do not rot after death and they remain "alive", in the manner
Allah has ordained for them.)
Yusuf Ali:
Think not of those who are slain in Allah's way as dead. Nay, they live, finding their sustenance in the presence of their Lord;
Pickthal:
Think not of those, who are slain in the way of Allah, as dead. Nay, they are living. With their Lord they have provision.
