OPEN ENDED QUESTION
dun dun DUNN
How does the concept of Allah (SWT) keeping the Prophet (SAW) steadfast relate to the idea that falsehood can only prevail when not countered by truth?
Full points if you have evidence from the tafsir, not just analysis on your part
Points if you mention anything from the tafsir as evidence
Allah (SWT) protected the Prophet (SAW) from inclining toward the Kuffar’s demands, ensuring he remained firm in delivering the truth. This shows that truth is inherently strong, but if not upheld, falsehood spreads. Just as Allah (SWT) safeguarded the Prophet (SAW) from corruption, believers must remain steadfast in upholding the truth to prevent falsehood from taking hold.
The disbelievers asked the Prophet (PBUH) for a lot of signs out of stubbornness. Name at least 4 of the 6 for points.
A spring to gush forth from the Earth
Prophet SAW to have a Garden of date palms and vines and he causes rivers to gush forth in their midst
Cause the sky to fall upon them in pieces as Prophet SAW claimed would happen on the Last Day
Bring Allah SWT and the Angels before them, face to face
Prophet SAW having a house made of gold
Prophet SAW ascend to heaven
Even then they wouldn't in the ascent believe unless he brought a Book they can read
