6 Preface وَقالوا يا أَيُّهَا الَّذي نُزِّلَ عَلَيهِ الذِّكرُ إِنَّكَ لَمَجنونٌYusuf AliThey say: “O thou to whom the Message is being revealed! truly thou art mad (or possessed)!1Al Muṣṭafā was accused by the ungodly of being mad or possessed, because he spoke of higher things than they knew, and acted from motives purer and nobler than they could understand. So, in a minor degree, is the lot of all the righteous in the presence of an ungodly world. Their motives, actions, words, hopes, and aspirations are unintelligible to their fellows, and they are accused of being mad or out of their senses. But they know that they are on the right path, and it is the ungodly who are really acting against their own best interests.
