Kindly help with the translation of the suras below. Is the translation correct?

Question

Else if not wat is the translation?

Sura (9:123) - "O you who believe! fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you and let them find in you hardness."

Sura (21:44) - "We gave the good things of this life to these men and their fathers until the period grew long for them; See they not that We gradually reduce the land (in their control) from its outlying borders? Is it then they who will win?"

Sura (25:52) - "Therefore listen not to the Unbelievers, but strive against them with the utmost strenuousness, with the (Qur'an)." "Strive against" is Jihad, obviously not in the personal context. It's also significant to point out that this is a Meccan verse.

Sura (47:4) - "So when you meet in battle those who disbelieve, then smite the necks until when you have overcome them, then make (them) prisoners,"

Dear Friend ,

There is not a single teaching in Islam which is against mankind..... I shall tell you all the meanings you want one by one.

Regarding the first one.

Sura (9:123)  At-Tauba

122

It is not proper that the believers should go forth all together. Therefore, why not a squadron from each division stay behind so that they may obtain the understanding of Deen (Al-Islam), and admonish the people when they return to them so that they may refrain from un-Islamic conduct!

123

O believers! Fight the unbelievers who hem you in, to let them know how tough you are; you should know that Allah is on the side of the Godfearing.

124

Whenever a Surah is revealed, some of them ask: "Whose faith from among you has increased by this?" Certainly the faith of the believers is increased and they do rejoice.

The verse no. 121 tells the believer muslims to study islam for admonation of other believers. And later on it is told to them also struggle with the disbelievers who are close by.....

for giving admonation to them......

The next verse no. 123 explains that when the Quran verses are recited to them they  disbelieve.... So we muslims are told to struggle with the Quran as people are not going to easily believe in it.

Sura 25 Al Furqan

52

therefore, do not yield to the unbelievers, and make Jihad (strive) against them with this Qur'an, a mighty Jihad (strenuous striving).

53

He is the One Who has made the two seas rolling, the one sweet and fresh, the other salt and bitter, and set a rampart between them, an insurmountable barrier.

54

He is the One Who has created man from water, then made for him blood relationships and that of marriage relationships, your Rabb is indeed All-Powerful.

55

Yet they worship those deities besides Allah which can neither help nor harm them, over and above this, the unbeliever has become a helper of every rebel against his own Rabb.

56

But O Muhammad! We have sent you only to proclaim good news and to give warning.

57

Say: "I ask of you no recompense for this work except that he who wants, may take a the Right Way to his Rabb."

In the above verses , it is very clear that we are supposed to struggle with the Quran.... Try to call people to the straight path........

and later in the verses it is clearly stated " He who wants may take a right way to his Rabb".

So you can understand the context of the verse you quoted...
