388

﴿39﴾ أمْ لَهُ الْبَنَاتُ وَلَكُمُ الْبَنُونَ

39. Or has He only daughters and you have sons?

Exegesis:

The blessed Verse in question is saying that these disbelievers who are ignorant of the higher world and God Almighty may not attribute offspring to the Creator of the world regarding angels as daughters of God Almighty and select sons for themselves since they imagine that they are stronger and nobler. It goes without saying that in terms of human values, sons and daughters are not different and the blessed Verse in question produces an argument to expose the falsity of the belief of opponents through producing the same argument against the opponent party. There are numerous references in the Holy Qur’an as to negating such superstitious belief through exposing the falsity of such baseless argument.
