al-Ṣaffāt

أَصْطَفَي الْبَنَاتِ عَلَي الْبَنِينَ

مَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ

أَفَلاَ تَذَكَّرُونَ

أَمْ لَكُمْ سُلْطَانٌ مُبِينٌ

153. “Has He chosen daughters in preference to sons?”

154. “What has happened to you, how is it that you judge?”

155. “Will you not then receive admonition?”

156. “Or have you a clear authority?”

Man may reach a point that, basing on a wrong opinion, he considers daughter bad and son good. Then, it happens that he may imagine daughters for Allah (s.w.t.) and sons belonging to him. So, with the sense of blame and reprimand, in these four verses the Holy Qur’an implies whether they have preferred daughters to sons. What is the matter with them and how do they judge? Do they understand what they say? Is it not the time they would leave these vanities and ugly superstitions, because these words are so vain and baseless that if a person has a little intellect and contemplates he will realize its vanity.

Here are the verses:

After the nullification of their superstitious claim, by a sensible reasoning and a rational reasoning, it refers to the third evidence which is a reasoning stated in tradition. It indicates that if the thing you say is correct, there must be a remark or symptom from it in the former Books. Do you have any clear evidence in this regard?
