8 Preface أَأُنزِلَ عَلَيهِ الذِّكرُ مِن بَينِنا ۚ بَل هُم في شَكٍّ مِن ذِكري ۖ بَل لَمّا يَذوقوا عَذابِYusuf Ali“What! has the Message been sent to him -1 (Of all persons) among us?”...but they are in doubt concerning My (Own) Message!2 Nay, they have not yet tasted My Punishment!Here comes in envy. 'If a Message had to come, why should it come to him, the orphan son of 'Abd God, and not to one of our own great men?'They have no clear idea of how God’s Message comes! It is not a worldly thing to be given to anyone. It is a divine thing requiring spiritual preparation. If they close their eyes to it now, it will be brought home to them when they taste the consequences of their folly!
