Muhammad Hamidullah · Le Saint Coran, traduction Muhammad Hamidullah

N'as-tu pas vu ceux qui sortirent de leurs demeures, - il y en avait des milliers -, par crainte de la mort? Puis Allah leur dit: «Mourez». Après quoi Il les rendit à la vie. Certes, Allah est Détenteur de la Faveur, envers les gens; mais la plupart des gens ne sont pas reconnaissants.

English

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall · The Meaning of the Glorious Koran (1930)

Bethink thee (O Muhammad) of those of old, who went forth from their habitations in their thousands, fearing death, and Allah said unto them: Die; and then He brought them back to life. Lo! Allah is a Lord of Kindness to mankind, but most of mankind give not thanks.
