7. And We sent not (as
Our Messengers) before thee other than men, whom We inspired. Ask the
followers of the Reminder if ye know not?
8. We gave them not
bodies that would not eat food, nor were they immortals.

Commentary
‘Ahlaz-Zikri – (the
followers of the Reminder); Zikr means “remembering recital of the
praise and names of Allaah, recollections, understanding, verse, poetry
and knowledge” etc. Here it aims “Knowledge, Science”. ‘Ahlaz-Zikri are
“the People of the Scripture” who were aware of the Prophets (peace be upon
them).
It was described earlier that
the Disbelievers used to try to keep the other people away from the Messenger
Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) by saying that “he is
a Man as we are, and a man cannot be a Messenger of Allaah. He eats;
drinks and walks just like a common person. If Allaah had to send anyone
by appointing His Messenger, He could send any Angel; who would have been free
from all such necessities.
In this verse, there is reply
of their saying so, that, O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon him): Say to them! We have sent many Messengers (peace be upon them) before
You, who all were men (from the mankind). The Jews and the Christians accept
and know it well, because they have recited the circumstances of many Prophets
(peace be upon them) in Torah and Gospel, and they know it that Their (peace be
upon them) bodies were as the bodies of entire mankind are, for keeping of
which formed; food and water are essential, and who can live in the world; only
for a fixed time. Perpetual life cannot be in the presence of such bodies. Ask
from the people who know about former Scriptures and their Bringer Messengers
(peace be upon them). They all were mankind and used to eat, drink and walk.
They performed their duties and then passed away. Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings
and peace be upon him) is the last Messenger of the same lineage. It would be a
surprising thing if He (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) is not
accepted as a Messenger.
