Sura 5
Aya 109
109
۞ يَومَ يَجمَعُ اللَّهُ الرُّسُلَ فَيَقولُ ماذا أُجِبتُم ۖ قالوا لا عِلمَ لَنا ۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ عَلّامُ الغُيوبِ

Muhammad Asad

ON THE DAY when God shall assemble all the apostles and shall ask, "What response did you receive?" -they will answer, "We have no knowledge; verily, it is Thou alone who fully knowest all the things that are beyond the reach of a created being's perception."1
  • Cf. verse 99 above: "No more is the Apostle bound to do than deliver the message" - for, neither can he force people to follow the right path, nor can he know what is in their hearts. (See also 4:41-42.)
