وَمَا عَلَّمۡنٰہُ الشِّعۡرَ وَمَا یَنۡۢبَغِیۡ لَہٗۤ ۚ اِنۡ ہُوَ اِلَّا ذِکۡرٌ وَّقُرۡاٰنٌ مُّبِیۡنٌ
15:10; 65:11.
15:10; 65:11.
It is inconsistent with the dignity of a Divine Prophet that he should be a poet, because poets are generally given to idle dreaming and making castles in the air. Prophets of God have before them very high and noble ideals and programmes. The verse, however, does not mean that all poetry is bad and that all poets are dreamers, but it does mean that a Divine Prophet is far too dignified and spiritually exalted to be a mere poet.
15:10; 65:11.
Commentary:
The verse purports to say that the fact that God has intended that a nation, the Arabs, who so far had been very low in the scale of humanity should now rise to the heights of power and glory is no idle dream, no poetry. A Prophet of God, a Divine Messenger, who shall lead them to spiritual and material grand-eur, has arisen among them. It is inconsistent with the dignity of this great Prophet to be a poet, because whereas poets are generally given to idle dreaming and making castles in the air, the Prophets of God have before them very high and noble ideals and programmes. The verse, however, does not mean that all poetry is bad and that all poets are dreamers but it does mean that a Divine Prophet is far too dignified and spiritually exalted to be a mere poet. The pronoun ہ in له can also apply to the Quran.
