    • Quran-6:124 Surah Al-anam English Translation,Transliteration and Tafsir(Tafseer).

    وَإِذَا جَآءَتۡهُمۡ ءَايَةٞ قَالُواْ لَن نُّؤۡمِنَ حَتَّىٰ نُؤۡتَىٰ مِثۡلَ مَآ أُوتِيَ رُسُلُ ٱللَّهِۘ ٱللَّهُ أَعۡلَمُ حَيۡثُ يَجۡعَلُ رِسَالَتَهُۥۗ سَيُصِيبُ ٱلَّذِينَ أَجۡرَمُواْ صَغَارٌ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ وَعَذَابٞ شَدِيدُۢ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَمۡكُرُونَ

    Transliteration:( Wa izaa jaaa'athum Aayatun qaaloo lan nu'mina hatta nu'taa misla maaa ootiya Rusulul laah; Allahu a'alamu haisu yaj'alu Risaalatah; sa yuseebul lazeena ajramoo saghaarun 'indal laahi wa 'azaabun shadeedum bimaa kaanoo yamkuroon )

    124. And when any sign comes to them, they say: "We shall never believe until we are given the like of what the Messengers of Allah have received" [275]. Allah knows well where to place His message [276]. Soon, the wrongdoers will face disgrace before Allah and a severe punishment for their plotting [277]. (Kanzul Imaan Translation)

    (124) And when a sign comes to them, they say, "Never will we believe until we are given like that which was given to the messengers of Allāh." Allāh is most knowing of where [i.e., with whom] He places His message. There will afflict those who committed crimes debasement before Allāh and severe punishment for what they used to conspire. (Saheen International Translation)

    Surah Al-Anam Ayat 124 Tafsir (Commentry)

    275. From this we learn selection for the prophethood is from Allah Almighty and is not obtained from one's deeds, strength, or wealth. Just as there is a special box to keep a jewel so is there a specially chosen chest for prophethood. Furthermore, one learns that it is forbidden to offer prayer or desire for prophethood because there should be no dua made for something impossible to obtain. Now for anyone to become a prophet is just as impossible for anyone to become a partner with Allah. The last brick of the palace of prophethood is already placed in position.

    276. Reason for its revelation:

    Walied bin Mughiera claimed that if prophethood is true then I am its worthy candidate because, in age and wealth, I am more superior to the Holy Prophet ?. In reply, Allah Almighty revealed this verse." What has been given" refers to the Divine Revelation and miracles i.e. prophethood.

    277. It becomes clear that those who plot against the prophets themselves become disgraced and destroyed. This has been and is being experienced. Similarly, service to Allah's Religion is a means of obtaining respect in this world and in the Hereafter.

     

    Ibn-Kathir

    The tafsir of Surah Al-Anam verse 124 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
    Please refer to Surah Anam ayat 123 which provides the complete commentary from verse 123 through 124.

    (6:124) Whenever there comes to them a sign from Allah, they say: ‘We will not believe until we are given what was given to the Messengers of Allah.’[91] Allah knows best where to place His message. Soon shall these wicked ones meet with humiliation and severe chastigement from Allah for all their evil plotting.

    Ala-Maududi

    (6:124) Whenever there comes to them a sign from Allah, they say: ‘We will not believe until we are given what was given to the Messengers of Allah.’[91] Allah knows best where to place His message. Soon shall these wicked ones meet with humiliation and severe chastigement from Allah for all their evil plotting.

    91. This shows that they were unwilling to believe in the statement of the Prophets that an angel of God came to each of them and delivered the message of God. They would believe, they said, only if the angel approached them directly and intimated God’s message to them.

    (124) And when a sign comes to them, they say, "Never will we believe until we are given like that which was given to the messengers of Allāh." Allāh is most knowing of where [i.e., with whom] He places His message. There will afflict those who committed crimes debasement before Allāh and severe punishment for what they used to conspire.
