📖 Commentary of Surah Al-An’aam – Verse 61

"He (Nuh) said: 'O my people! There is no misguidance [153] in me, but I am a Messenger from the Lord of the worlds [154].'"

✅ Prophets Are Never Misguided [153]

This verse establishes a fundamental belief: misguidance and Prophethood cannot coexist. A Prophet is divinely protected from going astray even for a moment. The use of the word "but" indicates a complete separation between the accusation and reality—affirming that Prophets are always rightly guided and serve as the purest channels of divine truth.

✅ Allah Chooses the Most Worthy for Prophethood [154]

Just as worldly kings do not appoint ignorant or incapable individuals as ministers, it is unthinkable that Allah, the Lord of the worlds, would choose anyone misguided or unworthy to be His Messenger. To suggest otherwise would be to question the wisdom and perfection of Allah's decisions—something that would be deeply disrespectful and contrary to faith.
