6:11
وَلَقَدِ ٱسْتُهْزِئَ بِرُسُلٍ مِّن قَبْلِكَ فَحَاقَ بِٱلَّذِينَ سَخِرُوا۟ مِنْهُم مَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ
English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ra
And surely have the Messengers been mocked at before thee, but that which they mocked at encompassed those of them who scoffed.
English - Five Volume Translation
And surely [a]have the Messengers been mocked at before thee, but that which they mocked at encompassed those of them who scoffed.[758]
21:42.
Commentary:
The words, And surely have the Messengers been mocked at before thee, imply a hint that the demand of disbelievers regarding the coming of an angel is really nothing but a mockery. The verse also contains a prophecy about the destruction of the enemies of the Holy Prophet. The enemies of the former Prophets laughed them to scorn and were consequently punished by God, the very object of their mockery becoming the means of their destruction. The enemies of the Holy Prophet were also scoffing at him and so they too would meet with the same fate which befell their predecessors.
