سُوْرَةُ الْجِنِّ
Surah Al-Jinn (72) — Ayah 28
لِّيَعْلَمَ أَن قَدْ أَبْلَغُوا۟ رِسَـٰلَـٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَأَحَاطَ بِمَا لَدَيْهِمْ وَأَحْصَىٰ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ عَدَدًۢا ﴿28﴾
Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
[He (Allâh) protects them (the Messengers)], till He sees that they (the Messengers) have conveyed the Messages of their Lord (Allâh). And He (Allâh) surrounds all that which is with them, and He (Allâh) keeps count of all things (i.e. He knows the exact number of everything).

28. 1. "لیعلم" — Who is the pronoun referring to? According to some, it refers to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, so that you may know that the previous messengers also conveyed Allah's message in the same way as you have conveyed it. Some have made the angels the referent, that the angels conveyed Allah's message to the prophets. And some have made Allah the referent, that Allah protects His messengers through the angels.
28. 2. This refers to what is with the angels or with the prophets.
28. 3. Because He alone is the Knower of the unseen; whatever has happened and whatever will happen, He has counted all of it. That is, it is in His knowledge.
