When It Came, They Denied

فَكَفَرُواْ بِهِۦۖ فَسَوۡفَ يَعۡلَمُونَ ۝١٧٠

Yet (now that it is come) they disbelieve therein; but they will come to know.

Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall

Meaning

But they disbelieved in it, so they are going to know.

Insight

According to Elmalılı, when the Qur’an, the finest of reminders, came, far from embracing it sincerely they were ungrateful.

Reflect

Give thanks when a blessing you wished for comes.
