بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

2.143

وَ كَذٰلِكَ جَعَلْنٰكُمْ اُمَّةً وَّسَطًا لِّتَكُوْنُوْا شُهَدَآءَ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَ یَكُوْنَ الرَّسُوْلُ عَلَیْكُمْ شَهِیْدًاؕ-وَ مَا جَعَلْنَا الْقِبْلَةَ الَّتِیْ كُنْتَ عَلَیْهَاۤ اِلَّا لِنَعْلَمَ مَنْ یَّتَّبِـعُ الرَّسُوْلَ مِمَّنْ یَّنْقَلِبُ عَلٰى عَقِبَیْهِؕ-وَ اِنْ كَانَتْ لَكَبِیْرَةً اِلَّا عَلَى الَّذِیْنَ هَدَى اللّٰهُؕ-وَ مَا كَانَ اللّٰهُ لِیُضِیْعَ اِیْمَانَكُمْؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ بِالنَّاسِ لَرَءُوْفٌ رَّحِیْمٌ(143)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

English translation of Kanz-ul-Imaan

And this is how it is; that We have made you the best of all nations, that you be witnesses upon the people, and this Messenger is your protector and witness. And O Beloved, We had fixed that Qiblah upon which you were previously, for this reason only; to see who follows the Messenger and who turns back on his heels. And indeed, this (i.e. the acceptance of the change of Qiblah) was heavy but upon those whom Allah has guided. And it does not befit Allah that He would cause you to lose your faith. Verily, Allah is Most Kind, Most Merciful towards mankind.

Commentary

Although ʿIlm means “to know”, when its derivatives are used for Allah Almighty in the context of the future, they imply that Allah Almighty is testing someone before others or revealing the difference before them.
