Vers: 11

قَالَتۡ لَهُمۡ رُسُلُهُمۡ إِن نَّحۡنُ إِلَّا بَشَرٞ مِّثۡلُكُمۡ وَلَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَمُنُّ عَلَىٰ مَن يَشَآءُ مِنۡ عِبَادِهِۦۖ وَمَا كَانَ لَنَآ أَن نَّأۡتِيَكُم بِسُلۡطَٰنٍ إِلَّا بِإِذۡنِ ٱللَّهِۚ وَعَلَى ٱللَّهِ فَلۡيَتَوَكَّلِ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ

(11) Their Messengers said to them: “We are indeed but humans like yourselves but Allah bestows Favour on whoever He wishes among His servants^[2987]. It is not for us to bring you evident authority except by Allah’s permission!^[2988] In Allah let the Believers put their trust”.

[2987] That is with the great favour of Prophethood and/or Messengership (cf. al-Ṭabarī, Ibn Kathīr, al-Saʿdī).
[2988] This, out of piety, draws a line under the limits of a Messenger’s mandate (cf. Abū Ḥayyān).
