305. When revelation is connected to a non-prophet it would mean to place in the heart. says Allah Almighty: "And we inspired the mother of Musa" (S28 V7). In another verse Allah Almighty says: "And vour Lord inspired the bee" (S16:V68) Here too revelation will have similar connotationÂ
306. From this emerges two issues:
1. One must not conceal ones faith and Islam but make it known to others.
2. To make the Prophet a witness to your faith is a virtuous and excellent deed, as they are the witnesses of Allah.

The tafsir of Surah Maidah verse 111 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Maidah ayat 110 which provides the complete commentary from verse 110 through 111.
(5:111) And recall when I revealed to the disciples to believe in Me and in My Mes-senger, they said: “We do believe, and we bear witness that we indeed are the ones who submit to Allah”[127]
127. Jesus is being told that the faith of the disciples in him was also the result of God’s grace and succour, for he, himself, did not have the power to produce even one man of faith in that land of disbelief. It is also made clear that the true religion of the disciples of Jesus was Islam.
