(Their messengers said unto them: We are but mortals) human beings (like you) we are but created beings like you, (but Allah giveth grace unto whom He will of His slaves) by bestowing upon them prophethood and total surrender to Him. (It is not ours) it behoves us not (to bring you a warrant) a decree or proof (unless by the permission of Allah) by the command of Allah. (In Allah let believers put their trust!) He says: the believers should rely on Allah.
