Say: 'Indeed Messengers came unto you before me (all) with miracles, and with that (very miracle) which you spoke of..." Do not justify your escaping from Truth by religious subjects- "Those who said: 'Verily Allah has covenanted with us..." The subject of offering a ram is mentioned in the Torah, Leviticus, Chapter 9, No.2, such: "And he said unto Aaron, Take thee a young calf for a sin offering, and a ram for a burt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the Lord." The opponents' seeking pretext, throughout the history of human beings, is alike.

"Then, if they reject you, messengers before you have already been rejected while they came even with clear arguments; and the Psalms and the Enlightening Book." In this verse, Allah consoles the Prophet (S) and tells him that if these seekers of pretext reject you, it is not a new or an odd thing because the messengers before you were rejected, too.

It says: "Then, if they reject you, messengers before you have already been rejected..." This is in a case that those messengers had both clear signs and clear miracles with them. "... while they came even with clear arguments ..." Those messengers had not only clear arguments and miracles but they brought also both firm, acceptable scriptures arid the Enlightening Book. It says: "...

And verily you will be paid in full your reward on the Resurrection Day, Then whoever is delivered from the Fire and admitted into Paradise, he indeed is prosperous; and the life of this world is not but a provision of deception." Death, a General Destiny!
