The Best Explanation
وَلَا يَأۡتُونَكَ بِمَثَلٍ إِلَّا جِئۡنَٰكَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَأَحۡسَنَ تَفۡسِيرًا ٣٣
And they bring thee no similitude but We bring thee the Truth (as against it), and better (than their similitude) as argument.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
They bring you no example but We bring you the truth and the best explanation.
Insight
According to Elmalılı, this is the wisdom of its not being revealed at once: for every question and event the true answer comes.
Reflect
Seek answers to your questions in the Qur’an.
