  DAY 38: Takwir 15-22

   So I swear by the receding stars, those that run [their courses] and disappear, and the night as it falls , and the day as it breaks! Indeed, this ˹Quran˺ is the Word of ˹Allah delivered by Gabriel,˺ a noble messenger-angel, [Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position], the one obeyed there,  and trusted. And your fellow man is not insane.
  (
  During the early Meccan period, the Prophet (peace be upon him) faced intense opposition, mockery, and rejection. The disbelievers dismissed the Quran as the ramblings of a madman or the fabrications of a poet. These verses were revealed to:
  
      Reassure the Prophet (peace be upon him) that he was not insane and that his message was true.
  
      Challenge the disbelievers to reflect on the signs of Allah’s creation and the seriousness of the message.
  
      Strengthen the believers by affirming the divine origin of the Quran and the trustworthiness of its delivery.
  
  These verses serve as a powerful reminder of the Quran’s divine origin and the truthfulness of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). They refute the accusations of the disbelievers, affirm the reliability of the message, and call people to reflect on the signs of Allah’s creation. For the early Muslims, these verses were a source of reassurance and strength; for the disbelievers, they were a stern warning and an invitation to reconsider their rejection of the truth.
