"A reminder" means great, and he indicated that it is the most established of books and has the most benefits by saying: "Blessed". He indicated the increase of its greatness by what it has of closeness to understanding and miraculousness and other things by saying: "We have sent it down".

"Deniers" means that if someone other than you denied it, it would be appropriate for you to oppose it. So how can the denial be from you?
