« ሕዝቦቼ ሆይ ! ንገሩኝ ከጌታዬ በግልጽ ማስረጃ ላይ ብሆን ከእርሱም ዘንድ የሆነን ችሮታ ( ነብይነት ) ቢሰጠኝና በእናንተ ላይ ብትደበቅባችሁ እናንተ ለርቯ ጠይዎች ስትሆኑ እርቯን ( በመቀበል ) እናስገድዳችኋለን » አላቸው ፡ ፡
He said : O my people ! Bethink you , if I rely on a clear proof from my Lord and there hath come unto me a mercy from His presence , and it hath been made obscure to you , can we compel you to accept it when ye are averse thereto ?
