ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُ كَانَتْ تَأْتِيهِمْ رُسُلُهُمْ بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ فَقَالُوا أَبَشَرٌ يَهْدُونَنَا فَكَفَرُوا وَتَوَلَّوْا ۚ وَاسْتَغْنَى اللَّهُ ۚ وَاللَّهُ غَنِيٌّ حَمِيدٌ
Thalika biannahu kanat tateehim rusuluhum bialbayyinati faqaloo abasharun yahdoonana fakafaroo watawallaw waistaghna Allahu waAllahu ghaniyyun hameedun (6)
( ذلك ) العذاب ( بأنه كانت تأتيهم رسلهم بالبينات فقالوا أبشر يهدوننا ) ولم يقل : يهدينا لأن البشر وإن كان لفظه واحدا فإنه في معنى الجمع ، وهو اسم الجنس لا واحد له من لفظه وواحده إنسان ، ومعناها : ينكرون ويقولون آدمي مثلنا يهدينا ! ( فكفروا وتولوا واستغنى الله ) عن إيمانهم ( والله غني ) عن خلقه ( حميد ) في أفعاله .
That punishment which came on them, only came on them on account of the fact that their messengers used to bring clear evidence and glaring proof from Allah, but they said in denial of the fact that messengers could be from the human race: ‘Are human beings going to guide us to the truth?!’ So they disbelieved and turned away from having faith in them. But they did not harm Allah at all. Allah is in no need of their faith and obedience, because their obedience does not increase him in anything. Allah is Self-Sufficient and in no need of His servants. He is praiseworthy in His statements and actions.
