Read in Context

Chapter 6, Page 129, Juz 7

7. If We had sent down to you something written on paper, and they had even touched it with their hands, still the disbelievers would have said, “This is nothing but obvious magic.” 8. They say, “Why is it that an angel has not been sent down to him?” Had We sent down an angel, the whole matter would have been closed, and thereafter no further time would have been allowed to them. 9. If We had made him an angel, We would have obviously made him a man, and would have caused them the same confusion they are causing now. 10. Even before you (O Prophet,) many messengers were ridiculed. Those who laughed at them were, then, besieged by what they used to ridicule.
