وَإِذَا رَءَاكَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ إِن يَتَّخِذُونَكَ إِلَّا هُزُوًا أَهَٰذَا ٱلَّذِى يَذْكُرُ ءَالِهَتَكُمْ وَهُم بِذِكْرِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ هُمْ كَٰفِرُونَ

سُورَةُ الأَنبِيَاءِ
English — Sahih International
And when those who disbelieve see you, [O Muhammad], they take you not except in ridicule, [saying], "Is this the one who insults your gods?" And they are, at the mention of the Most Merciful, disbelievers.
اردو — مودودی
یہ منکرین حق جب تمہیں دیکھتے ہیں تو تمہارا مذاق بنا لیتے ہیں کہتے ہیں "کیا یہ ہے وہ شخص جو تمہارے خداؤں کا ذکر کیا کرتا ہے؟" اور ان کا اپنا حال یہ ہے کہ رحمان کے ذکر سے منکر ہیں
Bahasa Indonesia — Kemenag
Dan apahila orang-orang kafir itu melihat kamu, mereka hanya membuat kamu menjadi olok-olok. (Mereka mengatakan): "Apakah ini orang yang mencela tuhan-tuhan-mu?", padahal mereka adaIah orang-orang yang ingkar mengingat Allah Yang Maha Pemurah.
Ibn Kathir
How the Idolators mocked the Prophet Allah tells His Prophet ...
وَإِذَا رَآكَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ
(And when those who disbelieved see you,) meaning, the disbelievers of the Quraysh, such as Abu Jahl and his like.
إِن يَتَّخِذُونَكَ إِلاَّ هُزُواً
(they take you not except for mockery) means, they make fun of you and insult you, saying,
أَهَـذَا الَّذِى يَذْكُرُ آلِهَتَكُمْ
("Is this the one who talks about your gods") meaning, is this the one who insults your gods and ridicules your intelligence Allah says:
وَهُمْ بِذِكْرِ الرَّحْمَـنِ هُمْ كَـفِرُونَ
(While they disbelieve at the mention of the Most Gracious.) meaning, they disbelieve in Allah and yet they mock the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. As Allah says:
وَإِذَا رَأَوْكَ إِن يَتَّخِذُونَكَ إِلاَّ هُزُواً أَهَـذَا الَّذِى بَعَثَ اللَّهُ رَسُولاً - إِن كَادَ لَيُضِلُّنَا عَنْ ءَالِهَتِنَا لَوْلاَ أَن صَبْرَنَا عَلَيْهَا وَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ حِينَ يَرَوْنَ الْعَذَابَ مَنْ أَضَلُّ سَبِيلاً
(And when they see you, they treat you only in mockery (saying): "Is this the one whom Allah has sent as a Messenger He would have nearly misled us from our gods, had it not been that we were patient and constant in their worship!" And they will know, when they see the torment, who it is that is most astray from the path!) 25:41-42
خُلِقَ الإنْسَانُ مِنْ عَجَلٍ
(Man is created of haste.) This is like the Ayah:
وَكَانَ الإِنْسَـنُ عَجُولاً
(and man is ever hasty) 17:11, in all matters. The reason why the haste of man is mentioned here is that when mention is made of those who mock the Messenger , (the believers) will want to avenge them swiftly, and that so should happen sooner. Allah says,
خُلِقَ الإنْسَانُ مِنْ عَجَلٍ
(Man is created of haste.) because He delays (the punishment) until a time when, once He seizes him, He will never let him go. He delays it, then He hastens it; He waits, then He does not delay any longer. So He says:
سَأُوْرِيكُمْ ءَايَـتِى
(I will show you My Ayat) meaning, My vengeance, ruling and power over those who disobey Me.
فَلاَ تَسْتَعْجِلُونِ
(So ask Me not to hasten (them).)
المُيَسَّر
وإذا رآك الكفار - أيها الرسول - أشاروا إليك ساخرين منك بقول بعضهم لبعض: أهذا الرجل الذي يسبُّ آلهتكم؟ وجحدوا بالرحمن ونعمه، وبما أنزله من القرآن والهدى.
