وَمَا
مَنَعَ
النَّاسَ
أَن
يُؤْمِنُوا
إِذْ
جَاءَهُمُ
الْهُدَى
إِلَّا
أَن
قَالُوا
أَبَعَثَ
اللَّهُ
بَشَرًا
رَّسُولًا
wa-mā manaʿa n-nāsa ʾan yuʾminū ʾidh jāʾahumu l-hudā ʾillā ʾan qālū ʾa-baʿatha llāhu basharan rasūlan
Nothing has kept these people from believing when guidance came to them, but their saying, ‘Has Allah sent a human as an apostle?!’
— Ali Quli Qarai
What kept men back from belief when Guidance came to them, was nothing but this: they said, "Has Allah sent a man (like us) to be (His) Messenger?"
