Nisâ 4:152'de de belirtildiği gibi, kitap ehli Hz. Muhammed'den kendilerine gökten bir kitap indirmesini istemişti. Yüce Allah işte bu ayette kişilere özel vahiy indirmediğini ifade ederek vahyi indirmenin de peygamberlerin işi değil Allah'ın kudretiyle şekillendirildiğini ilan etmektedir. Hz. Muhammed'den gökten kendilerine bir kitap indirmesini isteyenlere cevap verilmekte, Hz. Nuh'a ve sonraki peygamberlere vahyedildiği gibi Hz. Muhammed'e de vahyi Yüce Allah'ın göndermekte olduğu ifade edilmekte, böylece hem risalet kurumuna ait bir sisteme değinilmekte hem de vahyi Allah'ın sahiplendiği bildirilmektedir. ### Erhan Aktaş (10.

Aslında şahit olarak Allah yeter[3]. _Footnotes_ - [1] [Ra'd 13/43.](https://quran.so/13/43) - [2] [Cin 72/26](https://quran.so/72/26)-[28](https://quran.so/72/28) - [3] [En'am 6/19.](https://quran.so/6/19) ## Words | # | word | meaning | root | |---|---|---|---| | 1 | لَّـٰكِنِ — lākini | But | — | | 2 | ٱللَّهُ — l-lahu | Allah | — | | 3 | يَشْهَدُ — yashhadu | bears witness | شهد — Şin-he-Dal | | 4 | بِمَآ — bimā | to what | — | | 5 | أَنزَلَ — anzala | He (has) revealed | نزل — Nun-Za-Lam | | 6 | إِلَيْكَ ۖ — ilayka | to you | — | | 7 | أَنزَلَهُۥ — anzalahu | He has sent it down | نزل — Nun-Za-Lam | | 8 | بِعِلْمِهِۦ ۖ — biʿil'mihi | with His Knowledge | علم — Ayn-Lam-Mim | | 9 | وَٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ — wal-malāikatu | and the Angels | ملك — Mim-Lam-Kef | | 10 | يَشْهَدُونَ ۚ — yashhadūna | bear witness | شهد — Şin-he-Dal | | 11 | وَكَفَىٰ — wakafā | And is sufficient | كفي — Kef-Fe-Ye | | 12 | بِٱللَّهِ — bil-lahi | Allah | — | | 13 | شَهِيدًا — shahīdan | (as) a Witness | شهد — Şin-he-Dal | --- Previous: https://quran.so/surah-an-nisa/verse-165.md · Next: https://quran.so/surah-an-nisa/verse-167.md Retrieved: 2026-08-16 Quran.so — https://quran.so — CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 — When quoting, name the translator.
