قُلۡ مَآ أَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۡ أَجۡرٖ وَمَآ أَنَا۠ مِنَ ٱلۡمُتَكَلِّفِينَ
Say, ‘I do not ask you any reward for it, and I am no impostor.
Agha Ali Puya Commentary
Commentary on Quran 38:86
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 38:86] Aqa Mahdi Puya says: According to Shura: 23 the Holy Prophet was commanded to ask for a recompense as an exception to other prophets. The reward asked for was in the interest of those who want to find a way to their Lord, as stated in verse 47 of Saba and Furqan: 57. The word "impostor" or "pretender" refers to the objection his followers raised when "love of his Ahl ul Bayt" was enjoined on them in Shura: 23. Verse 87 refers to the recompense asked for in verse 23 of Shura.
