ضرورت نہیں ہے
Saying an Action Is Not Necessary
No need to do it → it is not required.
How It Works
The action appears as an oblique infinitive before کی ضرورت. The person who does not need to act can be marked with کو: آپ کو جانے کی ضرورت نہیں ہے.
ضرورت is feminine, so use کی and the matching feminine past form تھی when needed. The gender of the person does not change this expression.
The sentence removes a requirement. It does not by itself forbid the action, express inability, or say that the person did not do it.
