Surah Al-Jinn — Ayah 27 (72:27)
إِلَّا مَنِ ٱرۡتَضَىٰ مِن رَّسُولٖ فَإِنَّهُۥ يَسۡلُكُ مِنۢ بَيۡنِ يَدَيۡهِ وَمِنۡ خَلۡفِهِۦ رَصَدٗا ٢٧
English translation (Saheeh International)
Except whom He has approved of messengers, and indeed, He sends before him [i.e., each messenger] and behind him observers1
- - Guardian angels to protect the messenger and the message.
Brief commentary
Except for a messenger whom He, may He be glorified, selects and then discloses to him what He wishes. He sends guards from the angels to go before the messenger and protect him so that no one besides the messenger gains access to this.
