Sura 80
Aya 11
11
كَلّا إِنَّها تَذكِرَةٌ

Muhammad Asad

NAY, VERILY, these [messages] are but a reminder:1
  • Sc., of the existence and omnipotence of God. The Qur'an is described here, as in many other places, as "a reminder" because it is meant to bring man's instinctive - though sometimes hazy or unconscious - realization of God's existence into the full light of consciousness. (Cf. 7:172 and the corresponding note 139.)
