Sura 26
Aya 221
221
هَل أُنَبِّئُكُم عَلىٰ مَن تَنَزَّلُ الشَّياطينُ

Yusuf Ali

Shall I inform you, (O people!), on whom it is that the evil ones descend?1
  • To people who maliciously suggested that the Prophet was possessed or inspired by evil spirits (26:210 above) the reply had already been made, but it is now declared that the suggestion is itself the work of Evil. Behind such suggestions are lying and wickedness, or at best same half-truths caught up in hearsay and twisted so as to show God in an evil light.
