رُّسُلًا مُّبَشِّرِينَ وَمُنذِرِينَ لِئَلَّا يَكُونَ لِلنَّاسِ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ حُجَّةٌۢ بَعْدَٱلرُّسُلِ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَزِيزًا حَكِيمًا (165
لَّٰكِنِ ٱللَّهُ يَشْهَدُ بِمَآ أَنزَلَ إِلَيْكَ أَنزَلَهُۥ بِعِلْمِهِۦ وَٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ يَشْهَدُونَ وَكَفَىٰ بِٱللَّهِ شَهِيدًا (166
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ وَصَدُّوا۟ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ قَدْ ضَلُّوا۟ ضَلَٰلًۢا بَعِيدًا (167

165. (We sent) messengers of
good cheer and of warning, in
order that mankind might have no argument against Allah after the messengers. And Allah is ever Mighty, Wise.
166. But Allah (Himself) testifieth concerning that which He hath revealeth unto thee; in His knowledge hath He revealed it; and the angels also testify. And Allah is Sufficient Witness.
167. Lo! Those who disbelieve and hinder (others) from
the Way of Allah, they verily have wandered far astray.

Commentary
Li-‘allaa – actually these are three alphabetical letters – li, ‘an, laa. It means – in order that – no. In writing
usually it is written li-‘allaa. The letter “n” is deleted.
Sadduu - they hindered, it is from sadd, which
means ‘to hinder, to prevent, to disallow, to refrain’. Zalluu – (to
stray), It has been made from the word zalaal, which means ‘to lose
the way’. Zalluu
zalaalam-ba-‘iidaa - they
have adopted wrong path and wandered far astray after leaving the true
Way.
Allah Almighty says in this verse, “We sent many Messengers (peace be
upon them) heretofore. It was their duty to cause to hear the people good
cheer, who do well, that they will be given very good retaliation (reward) of
their good deeds, and warn them who are evildoers, that they will be oppressed
by different types of adversities and will be punished very severely.
Aim to send the Messengers
(peace be upon them) was that the people may not argue and evade on the
Doomsday that they did not know about the Straight Path. They might say, “If we
had known about the correct way, surely we would have adopted it”. After
sending the Messengers (peace be upon them), now they cannot say these words,
because they (peace be upon them) have told the people very clearly about the
truth. Now if they do not obey them (peace be upon them), then they will be
punished according to their deeds.
If Allah Almighty
wished, He was able to direct all the human beings forcibly towards the
Straight Path, because He is Ever Mighty and very Wise. But His Wisdom and Plan
wished to empower them and give them reward or punishment of deeds. Then it has
been emphasized, “We have determined the Holy Qur’aan for perfect guidance of the humankind for entire times, and We
testify it and the Angels (peace be upon them) are also its witnesses that It
has all necessary things, which human beings need”.
