Muḥammad

أفَمَنْ كَانَ عَلَی بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ كَمَنْ زُيِّنَ لَهُ سُوءُ عَمَلِهِ وَاتَّبَعُوا أهْوَاءَهُمْ

14. Is he who is on a clear proof from his Lord, like those for whom their evil deeds that they do are beautified for them while they follow their own lusts?

The prophethood of the Prophet of Islam (S) is accompanied with clear proofs. He is Divinely appointed to proclaim the Divine Message. He has nothing of his own to profess and he lays emphasis on the same. Certainly believers rely on proofs whereas disbelievers rely on their vain desires. The noble Verse draws a distinction between the people of Truth and those of falsehood. He produces clear proofs as to his Divine prophethood. The Holy Qur’an is both the Noble Messenger’s (S) miracle and the Book of Law. It is a clear proof demonstrating his Truth since Divine Word is inimitable in terms of eloquence and inclusion of secrets such that Arab eloquent orators and scholars worldwide failed to produce one single verse like It.

Is such individual on a par with one devoid of spiritual perfection? Are not their vices beautified for them through satanic embellishment? Are they not followers of their concupiscence? The wise know that these two individuals are not alike.
