Assalam alikum what does this verse mean some people say that this verse means that its not allowed to read other religious books etc and hadith just to see what these say etc
And does it mean we can't seek knowledge or good meaning from fiction etc else where except from the quran
Peace be upon you :)
The previous ayaa is "But they say, "Why are not signs sent down to him from his Lord?" Say, "The signs are only with God , and I am only a clear warner.", then the next ayaa says "And is it not sufficient for them that We revealed to you the Book which is recited to them?"
This is clearly a response to the claim that the Prophet (PBUH) did not have any signs, and God responds that is not enough that a book is revealed to him. This ayaa cannot mean that we are not allowed to read other religious books.
Hope that answers your question. :)
Thanks jazzakkallah
