Surah At-Tur — Ayah 30 (52:30)
أَمۡ يَقُولُونَ شَاعِرٞ نَّتَرَبَّصُ بِهِۦ رَيۡبَ ٱلۡمَنُونِ ٣٠
English translation (Saheeh International)
Or do they say [of you], "A poet for whom we await a misfortune of time"?1
- - i.e., some accident or inevitable death.
Brief commentary
Do these idolaters say: “Muhammad is not a messenger, but he is a poet whom we await death to seize so we can be relieved of him”?
