Reflection — Ibn Kathir

Praise for Those Who convey the Message

Allah says:

الَّذِينَ يُبَلِّغُونَ رِسَالـتِ اللَّهِ

Reflection — Maarif ul Quran

Mentioned next are particular attributes of the prophets علیہم السلام about whom we have learnt a while ago that they were permitted to have several wives in earlier times. It was said: الَّذِينَ يُبَلِّغُونَ رِ‌سَالَاتِ اللَّـهِ (those who convey the messages of Allah and have awe of Him and have no awe of anyone except Allah - 39), that is, all these esteemed prophets, may peace be upon them, convey the messages of Allah to their respective communities without fear of anyone.
