فَٱعْبُدُوا۟ مَا شِئْتُم مِّن دُونِهِۦ ۗ قُلْ إِنَّ ٱلْخَٰسِرِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ خَسِرُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ وَأَهْلِيهِمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ ۗ أَلَا ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْخُسْرَانُ ٱلْمُبِينُ

سُورَةُ الزُّمَرِ
English — Sahih International
So worship what you will besides Him." Say, "Indeed, the losers are the ones who will lose themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection. Unquestionably, that is the manifest loss."
اردو — مودودی
تم اُس کے سوا جس جس کی بندگی کرنا چاہو کرتے رہو کہو، اصل دیوالیے تو وہی ہیں جنہوں نے قیامت کے روز اپنے آپ کو اور اپنے اہل و عیال کو گھاٹے میں ڈال دیا خوب سن رکھو، یہی کھلا دیوالہ ہے
Bahasa Indonesia — Kemenag
Maka sembahlah olehmu (hai orang-orang musyrik) apa yang kamu kehendaki selain Dia. Katakanlah: "Sesungguhnya orang-orang yang rugi ialah orang-orang yang merugikan diri mereka sendiri dan keluarganya pada hari kiamat". Ingatlah yang demikian itu adalah kerugian yang nyata.
Ibn Kathir
Creating Fear of the Punishment of Allah
Allah `says, say O Muhammad, even though you are the Messenger of Allah ﷺ:'
إِنِّى أَخَافُ إِنْ عَصَيْتُ رَبِّى عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ
(Verily, if I disobey my Lord, I am afraid of the torment of a great Day.) meaning the Day of Resurrection. This is a conditional sentence, and if what is referred to here applies to the Prophet , it applies even more so to others,
قُلِ اللَّهَ أَعْبُدُ مُخْلِصاً لَّهُ دِينِى فَاعْبُدُواْ مَا شِئْتُمْ مِّن دُونِهِ
(Say: "Allah Alone I worship by doing religious deeds sincerely for His sake only. So, worship what you like besides Him.") This is also a threat, and a disowning of them.
قُلْ إِنَّ الْخَـسِرِينَ
(Say: "The losers...") means, the greatest losers of all,
الَّذِينَ خَسِرُواْ أَنفُسَهُمْ وَأَهْلِيهِمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَـمَةِ
(are those who will lose themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection.) means, they will be separated and will never meet again, whether their families have gone to Paradise and they have gone to Hell, or all of them have gone to Hell, they will never meet or feel happiness again.
أَلاَ ذَلِكَ هُوَ الْخُسْرَانُ الْمُبِينُ
(Verily, that will be a manifest loss!) means, this is the clearest and most obvious loss. Then He describes their state in the Fire:
لَهُمْ مِّن فَوْقِهِمْ ظُلَلٌ مِّنَ النَّارِ وَمِن تَحْتِهِمْ ظُلَلٌ
(They shall have coverings of Fire, above them and covering (of Fire) beneath them.) This is like the Ayat:
لَهُم مِّن جَهَنَّمَ مِهَادٌ وَمِن فَوْقِهِمْ غَوَاشٍ وَكَذَلِكَ نَجْزِى الظَّـلِمِينَ
(Theirs will be a bed of Hell (Fire), and over them coverings (of Hell-fire). Thus do We recompense the wrongdoers) (7:41)
يَوْمَ يَغْشَـهُمُ الْعَذَابُ مِن فَوْقِهِمْ وَمِن تَحْتِ أَرْجُلِهِمْ وَيِقُولُ ذُوقُواْ مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ
(On the Day when the torment (Hell-fire) shall cover them from above them and from underneath their feet, and it will be said: "Taste what you used to do.") (29:55)
ذَلِكَ يُخَوِّفُ اللَّهُ بِهِ عِبَادَهُ
(With this Allah frightens His servants:) means, Allah tells us about this, which will undoubtedly come to pass, to frighten His servants, so that they will keep away from unlawful things and from sin.
يعِبَادِ فَاتَّقُونِ
(O My servants, therefore have Taqwa of Me!) means, `fear My wrath, My anger, My punishment and My vengeance.'
المُيَسَّر
قل -أيها الرسول-: إني أعبد الله وحده لا شريك له مخلصًا له عبادتي وطاعتي، فاعبدوا أنتم- أيها المشركون- ما شئتم من دون الله من الأوثان والأصنام وغير ذلك من مخلوقاته، فلا يضرني ذلك شيئًا. وهذا تهديد ووعيد لمن عبد غير الله، وأشرك معه غيره. قل -أيها الرسول-: إن الخاسرين- حقًا- هم الذين خسروا أنفسهم وأهليهم يوم القيامة، وذلك بإغوائهم في الدنيا وإضلالهم عن الإيمان. ألا إن خسران هؤلاء المشركين أنفسهم وأهليهم يوم القيامة هو الخسران البيِّن الواضح.
