Reward for Calling and Prophethood:
Every prophet has said this to his people: I am conveying Allah's message to you without any greed, and yet you treat me as your enemy and confront me. I have given up my own comfort, abandoned the pursuit of worldly gain, and I am not demanding any compensation from you, yet I am taking on the enmity of all of you. So, you yourselves should think: what personal benefit could I possibly have in this? The words of such a person cannot be so insignificant that they should be rejected without any thought.
