Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books An Enlightening Commentary into the Light of the Holy Qur'an vol. 5 Section 10: The Divine Revelation Disbelieves in the revelation to Apostle -the Qur'an revealed for all ages.

Surah Al-‘An’am, Verse 91 وَمَا قَدَرُواْ اللّهَ حَقَّ قَدْرِهِ إِذْ قَالُواْ مَا أَنزَلَ اللّهُ عَلَى بَشَرٍ مِّن شَيْءٍ قُلْ مَنْ أَنزَلَ الْكِتَابَ الَّذِي جَاء بِهِ مُوسَى نُورًا وَهُدًى لِّلنَّاسِ تَجْعَلُونَهُ قَرَاطِيسَ تُبْدُونَهَا وَتُخْفُونَ كَثِيراً وَعُلِّمْتُم مَّا لَمْ تَعْلَمُواْ أَنتُمْ وَلاَ آبَاؤُكُمْ قُلِ اللّهُ ثُمَّ ذَرْهُمْ فِي خَوْضِهِمْ يَلْعَبُونَ 91.

"And they did not recognize Allah with the recognition due to Him when they said: ' Allah has not sent down anything to any human being.' Say: 'Who sent down the Book that was brought by Moses as a light and a guidance to men, which you put into papers, revealing (a part on it and concealing much (of it); and (by means of which) you were taught what you did not know, (neither) you nor your fathers?' Say: ' Allah (has sent it down);' then leave them sporting in their vain discourses." In fact they did not recognize Allah (S.w.T.) the way He should be recognized, and they did not regard His Glory as it is due to Him.

"And they did not recognize Allah with the recognition due to Him when they said: ..." They could not qualify Allah as that His infinite graces and favors unto His servants should be described. Therefore, they denied all His merits, and they said: "...' Allah has not sent down anything to any human being.

..." By this statement, they denied the mission of prophets and the revelation unto them, which is one of the greatest blessings and the highest favor of Allah*.* When, with the purpose of exaggeration in rejecting the descent of the Qur'an unto the Prophet of Islam (S) the Jews denied all things, Allah reminded them a matter that they could not help but confessing it. The matter was the descent of the Torah unto Moses (as) , which was known to them all.

By means of this affirmation of theirs, the Qur'an blamed them that they distorted the Torah, and they revealed a part of it and concealed a great deal of it. These phrases are upon this meaning: "....' Say: 'Who sent down the Book that was brought by Moses as a light and guidance to men, which you put into papers, revealing (a part on it and concealing much (of it)....." Moses (as) brought the Torah which was an enlightening light upon religion and a source of guidance for people. "...
