Ibn Kathir (Abridged)

All Messengers met the Same Type of Denial from Their Nations

Allah comforts His Prophet by saying to Him, `just as these idolators denied you, the disbelievers of old used the same words with their Messengers,'

كَذَلِكَ مَآ أَتَى الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلاَّ قَالُواْ سَحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْ

Read in Context

47. And heaven – We made it with Our Own Power and We have the Power to do so. 48. And the earth – We spread it out, and how well have We smoothed it! 49. And of everything We have created pairs; perhaps you will take heed. 50. Flee, therefore, to Allah. Surely I am a clear warner to you from Him; 51. and do not set up any deity with Allah. Surely I am a clear warner to you from Him. 52. Thus has it been (in the past): never did a Messenger come to the nations that preceded them but they said: “(He is) a sorcerer, or a mad-man.” 53. Have they arrived at a common understanding concerning this? No; but they are a people given to transgression. 54. So turn your attention away from them; you shall incur no blame. 55. Do, however, keep exhorting them; for exhortation benefits those endowed with faith. 56. I created the jinn and humans for nothing else but that they may serve Me; 57. I desire from them no provision, nor do I want them to feed Me. 58. Surely Allah is the Bestower of all provision, the Lord of all power, the Strong. 59. The wrong-doers shall receive a portion of the chastisements as their fellows (of yore). So let them not rush Me. 60. Woe, then, betide those who disbelieved in that Day of theirs which they are being asked to hold in dread.
