And when He confirmed them on what had preceded; and concluded with the Oneness; which is the first principle of the foundations of the religion; He alerted that it is the intended purpose in itself; by mentioning what follows it in the second principle; which is the message; of belief; and disbelief; He said - lamenting the poor reception of the Quraysh to His signs; and their criticism of His clear proofs; comforting him ﷺ; (p-10) adding to what you might estimate: "If they believe you, then they are deserving of belief; for what has been established by that from the evidences; and what has been testified by it from the objectives; and the means" -: ﴿And if they deny you﴾; meaning: out of stubbornness; and a lack of concern for the consequences; so be patient with your brothers; ﴿For indeed﴾; meaning: because it has indeed ﴿been denied by messengers﴾; meaning: oh how many messengers! And he built the action for the unknown; because the comfort is based on the occurrence of denial; not specifying the denier; and he negated that He would send another after His existence; by saying: ﴿before you﴾; and he singled out denial by mention; out of concern for the comfort; alerting that most are denied; Al-Qushayri said: And in this is an indication for the wise; and the people of hearts; along with the common folk; and the outsiders; from this method; for they accept from them only a little; and the people of truths are always among them in enduring harm; and the common folk are closer to this method than the ascetic readers.

And when the estimation is a negation of the amazement at the denial that occurs without a correct measure: "For from Allah; who has no command for anyone with Him; all matters are issued"; He added to it His saying - threatening those who opposed His command -: ﴿And to Allah﴾; meaning: alone; for to Him belong all matters; ﴿All matters are returned﴾; meaning: in reality; and in meaning; so be patient; and return the matter to us; by leaving the causes; except what We command you with; as your brothers from the messengers did.
