(They will ask thee) O Muhammad (concerning the Spirit) it was the people of Mecca-Abu Jahl and his host-who asked. (Say: The Spirit is by command of my Lord) the Spirit is of the marvels of my Lord; it is also said that this means: it is the restricted knowledge of my Lord, (and of knowledge) which is with Allah (ye have been vouchsafed) you have been given (but little).
