The Night Journey · Meccan · Juz 15 · Page 290

وَلَئِن شِئْنَا لَنَذْهَبَنَّ بِٱلَّذِىٓ أَوْحَيْنَآ إِلَيْكَ ثُمَّ لَا تَجِدُ لَكَ بِهِۦ عَلَيْنَا وَكِيلًا ﴿86﴾
And if We willed, We could surely take away that which We have revealed to you (i.e. this Qur’ân). Then you would find no protector for you against Us in that respect.
وَلَئِن wala-in And if
شِئْنَا shi'nā We willed
لَنَذْهَبَنَّ lanadhhabanna We (would) have surely taken away
بِٱلَّذِىٓ bi-alladhī that which
أَوْحَيْنَآ awḥaynā We have revealed

Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran (Facilitation of the Quran) is a comprehensive Quran commentary by Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar from Pakistan. Known for his eloquent and accessible writing style, Kilani authored this tafsir with a focus on clarity — making Quranic meanings understandable to the common reader. The tafsir provides detailed historical context for verses related to battles and expeditions, and firmly refutes modernist ideologies using strong scriptural evidence. It is widely regarded as an invaluable resource for understanding the Quran and countering deviant interpretations. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.

86. And if We willed, We could surely take away what We have revealed to you, then you would not find for yourself any protector [107] against Us (who could bring it back).

[107]
In the Gradual Revelation of the Divine Message, There is a Great Favor of Allah Upon You:

This verse is actually related to the previous subject, in which the disbelievers of Makkah had proposed a form of compromise: if you would stop reciting those verses in which our deities are insulted, we would become obedient to you. In this verse, in fact, the importance of divine revelation is mentioned—that it is only due to the blessing of this divine revelation that the call of Islam is spreading day by day, and through this revelation, you and the Companions are being granted patience and steadfastness. If We were to make you forget some part of this revealed message, then the help and support of Allah that is reaching you could be cut off, and in such a case, there would be no power to support you. It is indeed a great favor of Allah upon you that revelation is being sent down to you in this manner and gradually, according to the circumstances, through which the means for the elevation of Islam are being created automatically.
