Al-An'am 6:35 وان كان كبر عليك اعراضهم فان استطعت ان تبتغي نفقا في الارض او سلما في السماء فتاتيهم باية ولو شاء الله لجمعهم على الهدى فلا تكونن من الجاهلين ٣٥

6:35
وَإِن
كَانَ
كَبُرَ
عَلَيۡكَ
إِعۡرَاضُهُمۡ
فَإِنِ
ٱسۡتَطَعۡتَ
أَن
تَبۡتَغِيَ
نَفَقٗا
فِي
ٱلۡأَرۡضِ
أَوۡ
سُلَّمٗا
فِي
ٱلسَّمَآءِ
فَتَأۡتِيَهُم
بِـَٔايَةٖۚ
وَلَوۡ
شَآءَ
ٱللَّهُ
لَجَمَعَهُمۡ
عَلَى
ٱلۡهُدَىٰۚ
فَلَا
تَكُونَنَّ
مِنَ
ٱلۡجَٰهِلِينَ

If you find their denial unbearable, then build—if you can—a tunnel through the earth or stairs to the sky to bring them a ˹more compelling˺ sign. Had Allah so willed, He could have guided them all. So do not be one of those ignorant ˹of this fact˺.

Comforting the Prophet

قَدْ نَعْلَمُ إِنَّهُ لَيَحْزُنُكَ الَّذِى يَقُولُونَ

(We know indeed the grief which their words cause you;) meaning, We know about their denial of you and your sadness and sorrow for them. All

Chapter 6, Page 131, Juz 7

31. Losers indeed are those who deny the meeting with Allah until the Hour takes them by surprise, then they will cry, “Woe to us for having ignored this!” They will bear ˹the burden of˺ their sins on their backs. Evil indeed is their burden! 32. This worldly life is no more than play and amusement, but far better is the ˹eternal˺ Home of the Hereafter for those mindful ˹of Allah˺. Will you not then understand? 33. We certainly know that what they say grieves you ˹O Prophet˺. It is not your honesty they question—it is Allah’s signs that the wrongdoers deny. 34. Indeed, messengers before you were rejected but patiently endured rejection and persecution until Our help came to them. And Allah’s promise ˹to help˺ is never broken. And you have already received some of the narratives of these messengers. 35. If you find their denial unbearable, then build—if you can—a tunnel through the earth or stairs to the sky to bring them a ˹more compelling˺ sign. Had Allah so willed, He could have guided them all. So do not be one of those ignorant ˹of this fact˺.
