36.13-21

وَ اضْرِبْ لَهُمْ مَّثَلًا اَصْحٰبَ الْقَرْیَةِۘ-اِذْ جَآءَهَا الْمُرْسَلُوْنَۚ (13) اِذْ اَرْسَلْنَاۤ اِلَیْهِمُ اثْنَیْنِ فَكَذَّبُوْهُمَا فَعَزَّزْنَا بِثَالِثٍ فَقَالُوْۤا اِنَّاۤ اِلَیْكُمْ مُّرْسَلُوْنَ(14) قَالُوْا مَاۤ اَنْتُمْ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُنَاۙ-وَ مَاۤ اَنْزَلَ الرَّحْمٰنُ مِنْ شَیْءٍۙ-اِنْ اَنْتُمْ اِلَّا تَكْذِبُوْنَ(15) قَالُوْا رَبُّنَا یَعْلَمُ اِنَّاۤ اِلَیْكُمْ لَمُرْسَلُوْنَ(16) وَ مَا عَلَیْنَاۤ اِلَّا الْبَلٰغُ الْمُبِیْنُ(17) قَالُوْۤا اِنَّا تَطَیَّرْنَا بِكُمْۚ-لَىٕنْ لَّمْ تَنْتَهُوْا لَنَرْجُمَنَّكُمْ وَ لَیَمَسَّنَّكُمْ مِّنَّا عَذَابٌ اَلِیْمٌ(18) قَالُوْا طَآىٕرُكُمْ مَّعَكُمْؕ-اَىٕنْ ذُكِّرْتُمْؕ-بَلْ اَنْتُمْ قَوْمٌ مُّسْرِفُوْنَ(19) وَ جَآءَ مِنْ اَقْصَا الْمَدِیْنَةِ رَجُلٌ یَّسْعٰى قَالَ یٰقَوْمِ اتَّبِعُوا الْمُرْسَلِیْنَۙ (20) اتَّبِعُوْا مَنْ لَّا یَسْــٴَـلُكُمْ اَجْرًا وَّ هُمْ مُّهْتَدُوْنَ(21)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

And relate to them the example of the city folk. When the Messengers came to them. [1] When We sent two Messengers to them, then they denied them, so We strengthened them with a third, then they said, “Indeed We have been sent to you.” They said, “You are only humans like us, [1] and the Infinitely Gracious did not reveal anything, you are only lying.” They (the messengers) said, “Our Lord knows that indeed We have certainly been sent to you. And it is only incumbent upon us to convey clearly.” They said, “We consider you to be ill-fated, [1] if you do not refrain, we shall most definitely stone you and you will most certainly suffer excruciating torture from us.” They (the messengers) said, “Your misfortune is with you. Is it because you have been given counsel? Rather, you are people who exceed the limit.” And a man came running from the outskirts of the city, he said, “O my nation! Follow these messengers. Follow those who do not seek reward from you and are rightly guided.

Commentary

For a detailed account of the incident mentioned in this verse, refer to Tafsīr Ṣirāṭ Al-Jinān.

This alludes to how it has always been the way of the disbelievers to refer to the Prophets عَـلَـيْهِمُ السَّلَام as mere humans just like them.

Considering the pious people of Allah Almighty to be ill-omened and threatening to cause them harm is the way of the disbelievers. Furthermore, people have the habit of considering something to be blessed for them if their heart is inclined to it and they have a natural tendency to embrace it. Conversely, they deem something as ill-omened if they dislike it. This is why if they face adversity, argue, fight, or break familial relations, they assert that this was due to the ill-omen of a person, even though the actual cause was something else. It is important to remember that in Islam, no person, place, or time is ill-omened. There is no such concept in Islam, as it is nothing but superstition. However, sin and disbelief are examples which incur great misfortune.
