وَعَدَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ مِنكُمْ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ لَيَسْتَخْلِفَنَّهُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ كَمَا ٱسْتَخْلَفَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ وَلَيُمَكِّنَنَّ لَهُمْ دِينَهُمُ ٱلَّذِى ٱرْتَضَىٰ لَهُمْ وَلَيُبَدِّلَنَّهُم مِّنۢ بَعْدِ خَوْفِهِمْ أَمْنًا ۚ يَعْبُدُونَنِى لَا يُشْرِكُونَ بِى شَيْـًٔا ۚ وَمَن كَفَرَ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْفَـٰسِقُونَ

Translations of Quran 24:55
EnglishTalal Itani

Allah has promised those of you who believe and do righteous deeds, that He will make them successors on earth, as He made those before them successors, and He will establish for them their religion—which He has approved for them—and He will substitute security in place of their fear. They worship Me, never associating anything with Me. But whoever disbelieves after that—these are the sinners.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

Allah hath promised such of you as believe and do good work that He will surely make them to succeed (the present rulers) in the earth even as He caused those who were before them to succeed (others); and that He will surely establish for them their religion which He hath approved for them, and will give them in exchange safety after their fear. They serve Me. They ascribe no thing as partner unto Me. Those who disbelieve henceforth, they are the miscreants.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Sizden iyman edip salih ameller işliyenlere Allah şöyle va'd buyurdu: kasem olsun ki onlardan evvelkileri istıhlâf ettiği gibi kendilerini Arzda mutlak ve muhakkak istıhlâf edecek ve behemehal onlara kendileri için marzıysi olan dinlerini kuvvetle icra kudreti verecek ve behemehal onları korkularının arkasından emne erdirecek, hakkımda hiç bir şeyi şerik koşmıyarak hep bana ıbadet edecekler, kim de bundan sonra küfranda bulunursa artık onlar hep fasıklardır

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Dieu a promis à ceux qui auront cru et fait le bien, de les constituer héritiers dans ce pays, ainsi qu’il a fait succéder vos devanciers aux infidèles qui les ont précédés ; il leur a promis d’établir fermement cette religion qu’il lui a plu de leur donner, et de changer leurs inquiétudes en sécurité. Ils m’adoreront, et ne m’associeront dans leur culte aucun autre être. Ceux qui, après ces avertissements, demeureraient infidèles, seraient impies.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

God beloofde aan diegenen uwer, welke gelooven en goede werken verrichten, dat hij hen den ongeloovigen op de aarde zou doen opvolgen, zooals hij hen die vóór u waren, den ongeloovigen van hunnen tijd liet opvolgen, en dat hij voor hen den godsdienst, welke het hem behaagd heeft hun te geven, vaststellen, en hunne vrees in gerustheid veranderen zal. Zij zullen mij aanbidden en geen ander met mij verbinden. Maar zij die hierna nog ongeloovig zullen wezen, zijn boozen.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Dio ha promesso a quei ch’avran creduto, e praticate le buone opere, di costituirli eredi di questo paese, siccome ha fatto succedere i vostri antenati agl’infedeli che l’han preceduti; ha loro promesso di stabilire solidamente questa religione nella quale si sono piaciuti, e di cambiare la loro inquietudine in sicurezza. Essi m’adoreranno, e non m’associeranno alcun altro essere nel loro culto. Coloro che, dopo questi avvertimenti resteranno infedeli, saranno empj.
