Allah's admonishment of His Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, in the Noble Qur'an and its implications
0:15
The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, was admonished in more than one verse of the Noble Qur'an.
0:24
He was admonished for permitting the hypocrites to stay behind from jihad before their truthfulness or falsehood was evident.
0:32
Allah, the Almighty, said: "May Allah forgive you! Why did you give them permission to stay behind before it was clear to you who were the truthful and who were the liars?"
0:42
And he was admonished for forbidding himself certain things that Allah had made lawful for him.
0:47
“O Prophet! Why bannest thou that which Allah hath made lawful for thee, seeking to please thy wives? And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.” (66:1)
0:59
And he was admonished for turning away from Ibn Umm Maktum, the blind man, and turning towards the notables of Quraysh instead of him.
1:07
Allah, the Almighty, said: "He frowned and turned away, because there came to him the blind man."
1:14
"And what will make you know? Perhaps he would purify himself."
1:21
"As for him who thinks himself self-sufficient, to him you attend."
1:29
"But as for him who came to you striving, while he feared, from him you were distracted. No! Indeed, it is a reminder."
1:40
And perhaps the most severe admonishment for him, peace be upon him, was in the words of Allah, the Almighty:
1:47
“And when thou saidst unto him on whom Allah hath conferred favour and thou hast conferred favour: Keep thy wife to thyself, and fear Allah. And thou didst hide in thy mind that which Allah was to bring to light, and thou didst fear mankind whereas Allah hath a better right that thou shouldst fear Him. So when Zeyd had performed that necessary formality (of divorce) from her, We gave her unto thee in marriage, so that (henceforth) there may be no sin for believers in respect of wives of their adopted sons, when the latter have performed the necessary formality (of release) from them. The commandment of Allah must be fulfilled.” (33:37)
1:55
“And when thou saidst unto him on whom Allah hath conferred favour and thou hast conferred favour: Keep thy wife to thyself, and fear Allah. And thou didst hide in thy mind that which Allah was to bring to light, and thou didst fear mankind whereas Allah hath a better right that thou shouldst fear Him. So when Zeyd had performed that necessary formality (of divorce) from her, We gave her unto thee in marriage, so that (henceforth) there may be no sin for believers in respect of wives of their adopted sons, when the latter have performed the necessary formality (of release) from them. The commandment of Allah must be fulfilled.” (33:37)
2:02
“And when thou saidst unto him on whom Allah hath conferred favour and thou hast conferred favour: Keep thy wife to thyself, and fear Allah. And thou didst hide in thy mind that which Allah was to bring to light, and thou didst fear mankind whereas Allah hath a better right that thou shouldst fear Him. So when Zeyd had performed that necessary formality (of divorce) from her, We gave her unto thee in marriage, so that (henceforth) there may be no sin for believers in respect of wives of their adopted sons, when the latter have performed the necessary formality (of release) from them. The commandment of Allah must be fulfilled.” (33:37)
2:08
“And when thou saidst unto him on whom Allah hath conferred favour and thou hast conferred favour: Keep thy wife to thyself, and fear Allah. And thou didst hide in thy mind that which Allah was to bring to light, and thou didst fear mankind whereas Allah hath a better right that thou shouldst fear Him.

The commandment of Allah must be fulfilled.” (33:37)
2:16
"And it was a decree from Allah."
2:20
All these verses of admonishment indicate that the Noble Qur'an is from Allah, the Almighty.
2:28
It is impossible for the Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, to have fabricated it himself.
2:34
For if that were the case, it would not have mentioned anything of this kind of admonishment.
2:40
The Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, delivered his message clearly.
2:46
He did not withhold anything that was revealed to him; he conveyed it all.
2:52
He was not seeking to glorify himself.
2:55
Rather, he desired to fulfill the trust of conveying the message in the most complete and perfect way.
