(Ayah 3) {اِنَّكَ لَمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِيْنَ :} This does not mean, God forbid, that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had any doubt about his being a Messenger, rather in fact this is a refutation of those disbelievers who used to openly say to him (peace and blessings be upon him) that you are not sent by Allah, but are presenting this speech fabricated from yourself, as He said: «وَ يَقُوْلُ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَسْتَ مُرْسَلًا قُلْ كَفٰى بِاللّٰهِ شَهِيْدًۢا بَيْنِيْ وَ بَيْنَكُمْ وَ مَنْ عِنْدَهٗ عِلْمُ الْكِتٰبِ » [ الرعد : ۴۳ ] "And those who disbelieve say, 'You are not a Messenger.' Say, 'Allah is sufficient as a witness between me and you, and whoever has knowledge of the Book.'"

3. 1. The polytheists doubted the Prophethood of the Prophet ﷺ, therefore they denied your ﷺ Prophethood and said (وَيَقُوْلُ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَسْتَ مُرْسَلًا ۭ قُلْ كَفٰى باللّٰهِ شَهِيْدًۢا بَيْنِيْ وَبَيْنَكُمْ ۙ وَمَنْ عِنْدَهٗ عِلْمُ الْكِتٰبِ 43؀) 13. Ar-Ra'd:43) 'You are not a messenger.' In response to them, Allah swore by the Noble Qur'an and said that you ﷺ are among His messengers. In this, there is honor, virtue, and manifestation for you ﷺ. Allah did not swear an oath for the Prophethood of any other messenger; this is also among your ﷺ distinctions and unique qualities that Allah swore an oath to establish your ﷺ Prophethood.
