On the contrary, they will be brought before God in a body to bear witness against them. grieve thee. Verily, "We know فَلَا يَحْزُنُكَ قَوْلُهُمْ إِنَّا نَعْلَمُ مَا So let not their speech. 77 يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعْلِنُونَ. what they conceal and what they proclaim. 3263 أَوَلَمْ يَرَ الْإِنْسَانُ أَنَّا خَلَقْنَهُ مِنْ نُّطْفَةٍ Does not man see that we. 78 فَإِذَا هُوَ خَصِيمٌ مُّبِينٌ وَضَرَبَ لَنَا مَثَلًا وَنَيَ خَلْقَهُ قَالَ And he coins similitudes for. 79 have created him from a mere sperm drop? Then lo! he is an open quarreller! 3264 Us and forgets his own creation. a7:193. 10:66. 11:6; 16:24; 27:75; 28:70. d18:38; 22:6; 23:14; 35:12; 40:68. and has also sent a Messenger for their moral and spiritual regeneration, the disbelievers have rejected the Divine Message and have turned to false gods of their own imagination, labouring under the misconception that these gods will be of some help to them in their fight against truth. But this is an illusion because, as the next verse says, falsehood must suffer a crushing defeat, and truth must triumph and prevail in the long run. 3263. Commentary: The verse purports to say that if disbelievers, out of perversity and waywardness, refuse to listen to the Divine Message, why should the Holy Prophet grieve over their disbelief and rejection of truth, when God knows their open plans and secret designs, and He is quite able to bring these plans to naught. 2671 3264. Commentary: Continuing the theme of the preceding verse, the present verse may be taken as saying to the Holy Prophet that he has no cause to grieve over his rejection by disbelievers when they, forgetting their insignificant origin, have the hardihood even to doubt and dispute God's own Almightiness. This is one meaning of the verse. But this and the next two verses may also constitute an answer to those disbelievers who doubt the possibility of a spiritually dead people rising to a new and vigorous life. Or these verses may point to the inevitability Resurrection, saying that when God can raise a dead people like the Arabs to new life through the Holy Prophet, He does certainly possess the power to give new life to dead and decayed bones. of
