Quran 21:3(P)~6 (Ayah Al-Anbiya)
The evildoers would converse secretly, ˹saying,˺ “Is this ˹one˺ not human like yourselves? Would you fall for ˹this˺ witchcraft, even though you can ˹clearly˺ see?” The Prophet responded, “My Lord ˹fully˺ knows every word spoken in the heavens and the earth. For He is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing.” Yet they say, “This ˹Quran˺ is a set of confused dreams! No, he has fabricated it! No, he must be a poet! So let him bring us a ˹tangible˺ sign like those ˹prophets˺ sent before.” Not a ˹single˺ society We destroyed before them ever believed ˹after receiving the signs˺. Will these ˹pagans˺ then believe?

وَأَسَرُّوا۟ ٱلنَّجْوَى ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ هَلْ هَـٰذَآ إِلَّا بَشَرٌۭ مِّثْلُكُمْ ۖ أَفَتَأْتُونَ ٱلسِّحْرَ وَأَنتُمْ تُبْصِرُونَ ٣ جزئي قَالَ رَبِّى يَعْلَمُ ٱلْقَوْلَ فِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۖ وَهُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ ٤ بَلْ قَالُوٓا۟ أَضْغَـٰثُ أَحْلَـٰمٍۭ بَلِ ٱفْتَرَىٰهُ بَلْ هُوَ شَاعِرٌۭ فَلْيَأْتِنَا بِـَٔايَةٍۢ كَمَآ أُرْسِلَ ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ ٥ مَآ ءَامَنَتْ قَبْلَهُم مِّن قَرْيَةٍ أَهْلَكْنَـٰهَآ ۖ أَفَهُمْ يُؤْمِنُونَ ٦‏
The basic theme of the Surah is Prophets and Prophethood as indicated by the name itself. All Prophets were human beings. They suffered at the hands of their enemies. Allah also tested them, but they always trusted Allah and lived according to His command. They were people of prayers and devotions and Allah listened to their prayers.
سورة الاٴنبیَاء اور ظالم لوگ (آپس میں) چپکے چپکے باتیں کرتے ہیں کہ یہ (شخص کچھ بھی) نہیں مگر تمہارے جیسا آدمی ہے۔ تو تم آنکھوں دیکھتے جادو (کی لپیٹ) میں کیوں آتے ہو ﴿۳ جزوی﴾ (پیغمبر نے) کہا کہ جو بات آسمان اور زمین میں (کہی جاتی) ہے میرا پروردگار اسے جانتا ہے۔ اور وہ سننے والا (اور) جاننے والا ہے ﴿۴﴾ بلکہ (ظالم) کہنے لگے کہ (یہ قرآن) پریشان (باتیں ہیں جو) خواب (میں دیکھ لی) ہیں۔ (نہیں) بلکہ اس نے اس کو اپنی طرف سے بنا لیا ہے (نہیں) بلکہ (یہ شعر ہے جو اس) شاعر ہے۔(کا نتیجہٴ طبع) تو جیسے پہلے (پیغمبر نشانیاں دے کر) بھیجے گئے تھے (اسی طرح) یہ بھی ہمارے پاس کوئی نشانی لائے ﴿۵﴾ ان سے پہلے جن بستیوں کو ہم نے ہلاک کیا وہ ایمان نہیں لاتی تھیں۔ تو کیا یہ ایمان لے آئیں گے ﴿۶﴾
