وَقَالُوا۟ مَالِ هَٰذَا ٱلرَّسُولِ يَأْكُلُ ٱلطَّعَامَ وَيَمْشِى فِى ٱلْأَسْوَاقِ لَوْلَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيْهِ مَلَكٌ فَيَكُونَ مَعَهُۥ نَذِيرًا 7
أَوْ يُلْقَىٰٓ إِلَيْهِ كَنزٌ أَوْ تَكُونُ لَهُۥ جَنَّةٌ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهَا وَقَالَ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَ إِنتَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا رَجُلًا مَّسْحُورًا 8

7b. Why is not an angel
sent down unto him, to be a Warner with him –
8. Or (why is not) treasure
thrown down unto him, or why hath he not a garden from whence to eat? And the
evildoers say: Ye are but following a man bewitched.

Commentary
They say: Messenger of Allaah Almighty was supposed to be
an Angel, who would neither have been necessitous of food and water, nor had to
walk in the markets like common people. However, if he were a mankind, he would
have been impressive and a glorious man, before and behind of whom there would
have been angels in ranks and files for information of the people and safety of
the Messenger. If not more, then one angel was necessary to be along with the
Messenger every time for frightening the people, by the influence of which the
people had to hear the Sayings of the Messenger.
Well, pass it over! Any unusual position of the Messenger were
to be compulsory, for example, any heap of treasures in his possession, from
which he would have helped the needy people and they had to come running unto
him and follow him. If it not then he had to be a landlord and a rich person. He
had to possess a garden full of fruit trees, along with dates and grapes etc.
in abundance and from which he had to feed the people also along with himself. While
he (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) possesses nothing from the
above mentioned things then how can we admit that he is Messenger of Allaah
Almighty Who is the King of all kings.
O people! We think now that if you heard him, you would hear
such person who has been bewitched and who has lost his senses (God forbid).
