Reading this verse reminds you of .....?

Question

When their apostles came to them with clear arguments, they exulted in what they had with them of KNOWLEDGE , and there beset them that which they used to MOCK .

( Quran 40 : 83 )

Answer 1

To me it is further evidence that Hazrat Ahmad (as) is indeed the Imam Mahdi and Messih.  As several Muslim brothers and sisters have already commented, Apostles of Allah are always mocked at when they come, even though they come with clear arguments.

Never has it happened in history that the one sent by Allah was accepted right away without vehement unanimous rejection early on.  This itself should be a sign for all seekers of truth.  Allah bless and guide all the world, all Muslims.

love for all, hatred for none

Answer 2

to me it means that people are confronted with the truth and they know its the truth and its a truth they have always denied.  And these people deny to the last minute.  Pretty sad actually.

Answer 3

wow i didn't know that...

Answer 4

Apostles in Islam? I thought it was only Prophets and Messengers.

Mate I am not being disrespectful I just did not know Apostles existed in the Islamic religion. The word apostle is normally attributed to Jesus' disciples. (The 12 Apostles). Thats why I got confused. Is Apostle just another word for Prophet in Islam?

Thanks for being so prejudice by the way assuming just because I am Atheist I automatically am a bad person. Thanks for being so welcoming

Answer 5

Verse 83 of Surah al Ghaafir says:

فَلَمَّا جَاءتْهُمْ رُسُلُهُم بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ فَرِحُوا بِمَا عِندَهُم مِّنَ الْعِلْمِ وَحَاقَ بِهِم مَّا كَانُوا بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِئُون

Then when their Messengers came to them with clear proofs, they were glad (and proud) with that which they had of the knowledge (of worldly things): And that at which they used to mock, surrounded them (i.e. the punishment).
