we sent not a messenger but to be obeyed in accordance with the will of allah. if they had only when they were unjust to themselves come unto thee and asked allahs forgiveness and the messenger had asked forgiveness for them they would have found allah indeed oftreturning most merciful.
وما أرسلنا من رسول إلا ليطاع بإذن الله ولو أنهم إذ ظلموا أنفسهم جاءوك فاستغفروا الله واستغفر لهم الرسول لوجدوا الله توابا رحيما
