اگر کبھی شیطان تمہیں اکسائے تو اللہ کی پناہ مانگو، وہ سب کچھ سننے اور جاننے والا ہے حقیقت میں جو لو گ متقی ہیں اُن کا حال تو یہ ہوتا ہے کہ کبھی شیطان کے اثر سے کوئی برا خیال اگر انہیں چھو بھی جاتا ہے تو وہ فوراً چوکنے ہو جاتے ہیں اور پھر انہیں صاف نظر آنے لگتا ہے کہ ان کے لیے صحیح طریق کار کیا ہے رہے ان کے (یعنی شیاطین کے) بھائی بند، تو وہ انہیں ان کی کج روی میں کھینچے لیے چلے جاتے ہیں اور انہیں بھٹکانے میں کوئی کسر اٹھا نہیں رکھتے
The basic theme of this Surah is Risalah, i.e. Allah’s message as it was sent through many messengers. Several Prophets and parts of their stories are mentioned to emphasize Prophets’ mission and their struggle with their people. The Surah tells us that Allah’s Prophets suffered for the cause of truth. Their enemies tried to harm them, but then Allah helped his prophets and defeated their enemies. The Surah emphasizes that the true message must be presented under all circumstances. After the Prophets it is the duty of the Believers to convey the message of Allah to all people.
