Surah Az-Zukhruf — Ayah 52 (43:52)
أَمۡ أَنَا۠ خَيۡرٞ مِّنۡ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِي هُوَ مَهِينٞ وَلَا يَكَادُ يُبِينُ ٥٢
English translation (Saheeh International)
Or am I [not] better than this one [i.e., Moses] who is insignificant and hardly makes himself clear?1
- - That was true previous to his appointment as a prophet, at which time Allāh corrected his speech impediment.
Brief commentary
“Therefore, I am better than the weak, runaway Moses who cannot even speak well.”
