God raised up among the believers a messenger (ﷺ) (L-482)

لَقَدْ مَنَّ ٱللَّهُ عَلَى ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِذْبَعَثَ فِيهِمْ رَسُولًا مِّنْ أَنفُسِهِمْ يَتْلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمْ ءَايَٰتِهِۦ وَيُزَكِّيهِمْ وَيُعَلِّمُهُمُ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ وَٱلْحِكْمَةَ وَإِن كَانُوا۟ مِن قَبْلُ لَفِى ضَلَٰلٍ مُّبِينٍ

164. Laqad mannAllaahu ‘alal-Mu’-miniina
‘iz ba-‘asa fiihim Rasuulam-min ‘anfusihim
yatluu ‘alayhim ‘AayaatiHii wa yuzakkiihim
wa yu-‘allimu-humul-Kitaaba wal-Hikmah. Wa ‘in-kaanuu
min- qablu lafii zalaalim-mubiin. |

164. God has blessed the believers, as He raised up among
them a messenger from among themselves, who recites to them His revelations,
and purifies them, and teaches them the Scripture and wisdom; although before
that they were in evident error. |
Manna – {(He) did acts of kindness}, the words “man, yamunnu, ‘imtanaan, mannat etc. are from the same origin. In Holy Qur’an, it is only one likeness, which God has spoken about His favor conferred on His servants. It is the greatest kindness of God upon the mankind that He sent a Man as His Messenger (ﷺ) who is like other men. It is easy for the human beings to sit near him, to talk with him, to learn the Word (Qur’an) of God from him (ﷺ) and to reap the benefits of each type of His blessings. The people know very well the morality, honesty, trust, sincerity, purity, mercy and circumstances of this Messenger (ﷺ). When they observe the miracles appearing from the person, who belongs to their own folk and nation, it becomes easy for them to believe in him. Even if any demon or Angel (Peace be upon him) had come as messenger, seeing his miracles, the people could have pretended: He does not belong to our class (mankind). Therefore, his morality and deeds are not follow-able for us. So, God sent a mankind as His Messenger (ﷺ), who has good moral character, is merciful, mild and affectionate, from whom they can get bounty frankly. God has bestowed four basic excellences, which have already been described in Suratul Baqarah (The Cow):
1. The Messenger (ﷺ) recites the Revelations of God and causes the people to hear by reciting, apparent meanings of which (Revelations) are able to be understood very easily by the people of the Arab as the Arabic was their own language.
2. He (ﷺ) purifies the people from sins, evils, idol-worshiping and polytheism. By removing the badness, he (ﷺ) cleanses their hearts.
3. He teaches the Scripture of God. Where it seems difficult to understand by the people, he (ﷺ) removes the doubts by clearing its meanings.
4. He (ﷺ) teaches knowledge of Wisdom to the people, how to reach the bottom line, explains the secrets, signs and deep matters of Holy Qur’an.
