﴿ فَفَرَرْتُ مِنكُمْ لَمَّا خِفْتُكُمْ فَوَهَبَ لِى رَبِّى حُكْمًۭا وَجَعَلَنِى مِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴾
“and I fled from you because I feared you. But [since] then my Sustainer has endowed me with the ability to judge [between right and wrong], and has made me one of [His] message-bearers.”
(Then I fled from you when I feared you) when I feared that you would kill me, (and my Lord vouchsafed me a command) understanding, knowledge and prophethood (and appointed me (of the number) of those sent (by Him)) He made me a Messenger to you and to your people.
