Are you not seeing the birds which are flying – that is not a miracle from them, because for it is a species, from which occurs the likes of flight. And if a human were to fly like its flying, that would be (counted as) a miracle. So, Allah -azwj mighty and Majestic has Made the matter easy upon you, and Made it when a proof would be established upon you, and you are suggesting a difficult matter in which there is no proof’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص: وَ أَمَّا قَوْلُكَ: «مَا أَنْتَ إِلَّا رَجُلًا مَسْحُوراً» فَكَيْفَ أَكُونُ كَذَلِكَ، وَ قَدْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي فِي صِحَّةِ التَّمْيِيزِ وَ الْعَقْلِ فَوْقَكُمْ فَهَلْ جَرَّبْتُمْ عَلَيَّ مُنْذُ نَشَأْتُ- إِلَى أَنِ اسْتَكْمَلْتُ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً جَرِيرَةً أَوْ زَلَّةً أَوْ كَذِبَةً أَوْ خِيَانَةً أَوْ خَطَأً مِنَ الْقَوْلِ، أَوْ سَفَهاً مِنَ الرَّأْيِ Then Rasool-Allah -saww said: ‘And as for your words, ‘You -saww are not except a man bewitched’, so how can I -saww be like that, and you are knowing that I -saww am of healthy discernment and intellect, above you all.
Have you experienced upon me -saww , since I -saww grew up – up to the completion of forty years, any offence, or an error, or a lie, or a crime, or a mistake from the speech, or foolishness from the view?
Are you thinking that a man who is protected for the length of this period is by the might of his own self or by the Mighty of Allah -azwj and His -azwj Strength? And that is what Allah -azwj the Exalted Said: Look how they are striking the examples for you.
