ہماری مخلوق میں ایک گروہ ایسا بھی ہے جو ٹھیک ٹھیک حق کے مطابق ہدایت اور حق ہی کے مطابق انصاف کرتا ہے رہے وہ لوگ جنہوں نے ہماری آیات کو جھٹلا دیا ہے، تو انہیں ہم بتدریج ایسے طریقہ سے تباہی کی طرف لے جائیں گے کہ انہیں خبر تک نہ ہوگی میں ان کو ڈھیل دے رہا ہوں، میری چال کا کوئی توڑ نہیں ہے
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.
