Transliteration:( Maa 'alar Rasooli illal balaagh; wallaahu ya'lamu maa tubdoona wa maa taktumoon )
"The Messenger has no obligation but to deliver the Message [270]. And Allah knows what you disclose and what you conceal."
This verse highlights the independence of the Holy Prophet ﷺ—his duty was solely to deliver Allah’s message. If someone chooses to disobey, it causes no harm to the Prophet, but harms the disbeliever. Just as the sun loses nothing if one refuses its light, the Prophet’s mission remains complete, and the burden of response lies on each individual.
