Ahmed Raza Khan: Mohammed Aqib Qadri:
And the Jews said, "Allah's hand* is tied";
may their hands be tied - and they are accursed for saying so! In fact,
both His hands * are free, He bestows upon whomever He wills; and O dear
Prophet, this Book which has been sent down upon you from your Lord will
cause many of them to advance in their rebellion and disbelief; and We
have instilled enmity and hatred between them till the Day of Resurrection;
whenever they ignite the flame of war, Allah extinguishes it, and they
strive to create chaos in the land; and Allah does not love the mischievous.
(* This is a metaphor used to express Allah's power).
