Summary: Surah Al-Qasas, verses 86 through 88. Conclusion and conclusory comments. Wahy is delivered to a nabi with no effort on the part of the recipient towards such Divine attraction. Wahy is from the grace and predestination of Allah (S), it is all about rahmah and has nothing to do in essence with social and moral standing or otherwise. In this lecture: a prophet's supremacy over human beings is by virtue of the intellectual abilities given to him by Allah (S); only a prophet can plan for eternity; the minor signs of Allah's creativity, rahmah and compassion that are accessible to all human beings, and the greater signs that are revealed only to His anbiyaa (such as the mi'raaj); the similarities between Musa (AS) and Muhammad (S), and Al-Qasas as a vehicle of Divine kalaam that bridges one story with the other; the universal code of Tauheed and the path to Allah; the preservation of man and his good deeds in Jannah; the deficiencies of poetry in contrast with the perfection in Kalaam-ul-Allah. The moral of The Story is "Lahu al-Hukmu" - that all authority belongs to Allah.
