Lesson

It was described in the previous verse: Allaah Almighty is The Witness over My {Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)} purity/truth. And the biggest source of Allaah’s recognition is Holy Qur’aan, introducing the competitive Word like which, all the people have been rendered helpless. If, in the presence of so much big Witness (Qur’aan), you people will continue ascribing plurality to Allaah Almighty, then no wise person will accompany you. And I have come only to spread the teachings of Holy Qur’aan. I can never witness your misconception.

There is a straight forward acceptance in this verse, by denying from giving evidence of plurality and infidelity that Allaah (God) Almighty is only One. Allaah Almighty commands: Say! He is only One God. Lo! I am clear of that which ye associate with Him. Whether you believe or disbelieve, only it is the truth. There can be No other Worshipped except Allaah Almighty. And the matter, that; you use to make partners with Allaah Almighty and do not accept His Unity, I do not have any concern with it. My heart hates this deed and I proclaim My (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) open and fair displeasure from your this act (ascribing any partner with Allaah Almighty).
The idolaters used to say to the Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him): Produce any witness on your Messenger-hood. We have observed by asking from them, whom God gave the Scripture also, but they have not given any evidence that You are a Messenger.

As answer to their question, the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) produced Allaah Almighty as Witness over His Truth, which was discussed in the previous lesson, but the fact regarding not providing the evidence by the Jews and the Christians has been described in this verse.

Allaah Almighty says: Those unto whom We gave the Scripture before this (Qur’aan), recognize Our Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) certainly as they recognize their own sons. Surely they have no any doubt that You are Allaah’s Last Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him), because Glad Tidings and Tokens about You (Muhammad) have been mentioned very clearly in their Scriptures. And they have recognized the Last Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) very well by reciting the Revelations into their own Scriptures. But their perversity and worldly covetousness have bent them upon being ignorant intentionally. This is the ill-disposition and greed, which will ruin and destroy them in future, so they do not give evidence of Messenger-hood before you.
Truly; the people, who have been prepared intentionally to harm themselves, how will they believe?
