Al Baqarah

HR Background

قَالُوْا سُبْحٰنَكَ لَا عِلْمَ لَنَاۤ اِلَّا مَا عَلَّمْتَنَاؕ-اِنَّكَ اَنْتَ الْعَلِیْمُ الْحَكِیْمُ(32)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

They said, “O Allah You are Pure! We only know that which You have taught us.[1] Indeed, only You are the All-Knowing, the Most-Wise.”

Commentary

[1]

This verse highlights the honour of man and the excellence of knowledge. Furthermore, to attribute Allah with imparting of knowledge to others is correct, but He is not to be referred to as a teacher (muʿallim) because this term refers to one who imparts knowledge to others as a profession.
