وَلِيَعْلَمَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا ٱلْعِلْمَ أَنَّهُ ٱلْحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّكَ فَيُؤْمِنُوا بِهِ فَتُخْبِتَ لَهُ قُلُوبُهُمْ ۗ وَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَهَادِ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ

"And so those who were given knowledge may know that it is the truth from your Lord and [therefore] believe in it, and their hearts humbly submit to it. And indeed is Allah the Guide of those who have believed to a straight path."

اور یہ بھی غرض ہے کہ جن لوگوں کو علم عطا ہوا ہے وہ جان لیں کہ وہ (یعنی وحی) تمہارے پروردگار کی طرف سے حق ہے تو وہ اس پر ایمان لائیں اور ان کے دل خدا کے آگے عاجزی کریں۔ اور جو لوگ ایمان لائے ہیں خدا ان کو سیدھے رستے کی طرف ہدایت کرتا ہے

Explanation

It invariably happens that when one proclaims the divine Truth, whether he is a prophet or not, his opponents bring up various types of irrelevant points with a view to casting doubt on the truth of the message. Such points are always baseless. However, when they are raised, the preacher finds the opportunity to clarify his message and make it more cogent and well-established. This enhances the faith of sincere believers. Thereafter, their bonds with God become still stronger. But for those who are devoid of sincere understanding, these baseless objections become a source of trial for them. They are misled by them and move away from the Truth. ‘God will surely guide the faithful to a straight path’ means that those who are really sincere in their faith are not affected by false propaganda. They are never misled by the magic of false words. Their faith gives them deep insight into things, so that they are not carried away by outward appearances.
