The Shariah Of Preaching: (2) Preaching Obligation Of Abraham’s Progeny
If you are referring to Quran 2:143, it says that the Muslim community is the “middle nation,” and that Muslims are witnesses over all of humanity. Is this “middle nation” a reference to the companions of the prophet Muhammad? وَ کَذٰلِکَ جَعَلۡنٰکُمۡ اُمَّۃً وَّسَطًا لِّتَکُوۡنُوۡا شُہَدَآءَ عَلَی النَّاسِ وَ یَکُوۡنَ الرَّسُوۡلُ عَلَیۡکُمۡ شَہِیۡدًا Here we see the word An naas is used. Is the Alif Lam in this word used to indicate a period, such as the people who were contemporaries of the Prophet Muhammad?
