Table of Contents

    64. “And We have not sent down unto you the Book (the Qur’an), except that you may make clear to them that about which they differ; and (as) a guidance and a mercy for a people who believe.”

    This verse explains the objective of the prophetic mission of the messengers of Allah, so as to clarify that if nations and tribes put aside their passions and whims and personal tastes, and take recourse to the prophets, there will not be any of such superstitions, disagreements, and contradictory acts left.

    He says to the Prophet (S) that We have not revealed to you the Qur’an except that you make transparent to them the issues about which they disagree. And this Book is a source of guidance and mercy for those who embrace the Faith.

    The verse says:

    “And We have not sent down unto you the Book (the Qur’an), except that you may make clear to them that about which they differ; and (as) a guidance and a mercy for a people who believe.”

    And it also polishes all Satanical temptations from their heart as well as the enticing layers of one’s despotic soul.

    It also derives away the mischievous curtains from mixing up the facts and, at the same time, reveals and exposes the superstitions and crimes which are covered under the enticing guise. It removes all disagreements which have their roots in the passions and low desires and puts an end to all cruelties and oppressions. It sheds the light of guidance and mercy all over.
