Translation of the meanings Ayah: (111) Surah: Al-An‘ām
۞ وَلَوۡ أَنَّنَا نَزَّلۡنَآ إِلَيۡهِمُ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ وَكَلَّمَهُمُ ٱلۡمَوۡتَىٰ وَحَشَرۡنَا عَلَيۡهِمۡ كُلَّ شَيۡءٖ قُبُلٗا مَّا كَانُواْ لِيُؤۡمِنُوٓاْ إِلَّآ أَن يَشَآءَ ٱللَّهُ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ يَجۡهَلُونَ
(111) [1462]Had We sent down the angels ˹successively˺ to them[1463], made the dead talk to them[1464] and congregated everything right before them[1465], they would not have Believed[1466] unless that Allah wills it so; but indeed most of them are ignorant.
[1462] The fact that they only cherry pick to ‘see’ and ‘realize’ what is only to their fancy and selectively pay heed to whatever supports their position, alluded to in the previous passage, is further underlined and detailed here (cf. Riḍā).
[1463] Cf. Aya 8 above. Such a demand is not unusual of them: “Those who do not expect to meet Us say: “If only the angels were sent down to us, or we could see our Lord!” They have certainly been carried away by their arrogance and have entirely exceeded all limits” (25: 21).
[1464] To bear out the Truth of what the Messenger (ﷺ) is telling them. (al-Ṭabarī, Ibn Kathīr)
[1465] Even if everything was made to come before them and speak about the Truth of the Messenger (ﷺ), they would not change their minds. (al-Ṭabarī, Ibn Kathīr, al-Saʿdī)
[1466] “Truly those for whom the Word of your Lord has come due will not Believe, *though every Sign should come to them, till they see the painful Punishment” (10: 96-97).
