Introduction

The Jews understood who is a prophet, the Arabs did not. The only other nation that they knew who believed in prophets were the Jews and Christians. Allah says he had not sent a prophet before to the Arab nation. So why don't you tell us something that we can quiz the prophet with? We can try to ask the prophet, so they said them. And obviously because they thought he was a false prophet, he was not going to be able to answer - his lies will be exposed.
