At-Tur (The Mount)

Verse 37

Table of Contents

    37. Or are with them the treasures of your Lord? Or are they wield sway in this world?

    The blessed Verse in question is asking if the treasures of the world are with them thereby they are needless and they may wield sway and authority as they intend to do so or they are in need of everything. It is worthy of note that polytheists believed in divine creatorship but they fail to acknowledge him as the creator of their existence and failed to acknowledge the Prophetic Call.

    The blessed Verses present questions in order to censure them for failing to acknowledge the Call of the Noble Prophet of Islam (S).

    They are thus rebuked:

    "Why do you not accept the Noble Prophet's (S) words? Do you possess Divine Omnipotence and Possessions? Have you found a way leading to the heavens on your own and may directly receive Divine Revelation?"
