Al Anam

HR Background

وَ اِذَا جَآءَتْهُمْ اٰیَةٌ قَالُوْا لَنْ نُّؤْمِنَ حَتّٰى نُؤْتٰى مِثْلَ مَاۤ اُوْتِیَ رُسُلُ اللّٰهِ ﲪ اَللّٰهُ اَعْلَمُ حَیْثُ یَجْعَلُ رِسَالَتَهٗؕ-سَیُصِیْبُ الَّذِیْنَ اَجْرَمُوْا صَغَارٌ عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ وَ عَذَابٌ شَدِیْدٌۢ بِمَا كَانُوْا یَمْكُرُوْنَ(124)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

And when a sign comes to them, they say, “We shall never embrace faith until we are also given the equivalent of that which the Messengers of Allah were given.” Allah knows best regarding where to place His message (prophethood).[1] Soon severe punishment shall reach the evildoers in the court of Allah due to their scheming.

Commentary

[1]

Prophethood is a special grace granted by Allah Almighty, it is not attained through wealth or lineage, and one cannot become a Prophet though performing righteous deeds.
