The Prophet blamed himself

[Torch light]

"The Prophet – salam to him – said to himself: "I am afraid lest I neglect the conveyance of the message, or lest I neglect some obligatory duties in time, or forget some others,
and I may then be responsible before God about my negligence."

So his chest was tightened with much embarrassment; therefore, God addressed him with this aya [which means:]"

1. Alif. Lam. Miem. Ssad.

The explanation: (Recite To them, O Mohammed, the Truthful.)

2. [Mohammed, recite this] Book [: the Quran] revealed to you,
and let there be no embarrassment a in your breast as to it[s conveyance],

[but only] to warn [the unbelievers and the associaters] thereby, and as an admonition to the believers.)
......................................................................

2 a It means: Let there be no embarrassment in your breast as to the Book, because We do not task you with more than your capability, and We have not revealed it to bother you with it, but in order that you may warn by it the unbelievers and associaters; while as regards the believers, they will receive the admonition of the Quran.

SECOND:

On the other hand, Prophet Mohammed felt sorry for his people because they did not believe and did not refrain from their idolatry; and he grieved so much for them.

Therefore many ayat were revealed to assure him that it is God Himself Who did not guide them because of their wrong-doing.

Quran 18: 6, which means:
(Yet perchance, if they believe not in this theme, you [Mohammed] will kill yourself with grief [for them], on account of [their sanctifying of] their monuments a.)
.......................................................................

6 a i.e. the idols which became the monuments of the ancients.

It means: Because of their sanctification of the monuments which their fathers left behind, and their worshipping such monuments or idols; and because they do not listen to your words and refrain from worshipping the idols.

It means: Don’t grieve for them, nor do you be sorry for their ignorance and their acts; because God is All-Able to guide them, but He only guides the one who is prepared for the guidance, according to his good conduct, and his kindness to the poor and needy.

THIRD:

Prophet Mohammed was very anxious and earnest to guide his people, while he saw most of them unresponsive and they kept to their idolatry,

so many ayat were revealed to assure him that the guidance is up to God alone, and that he himself could not guide anyone whom he was pleased with.

Quran 16: 37, which means:
([O Mohammed] even if you try your best to guide them aright, surely God never guide those [of them] whom He misleads a, and you will not find for them any helpers b.)
................................................................

37 a It means: Anyone whom God misguides, you cannot guide him whatever you may advise and admonish, because they deserve the punishment.

37 b To help them when the punishment will befall them.

==================================================

FOURTH:

And when Mohammed, the messenger of God, persisted in his praying God that He might guide his people, and he said:

"Lord, guide my people, for they are ignorant and they do not know!"​

, God revealed to him this aya:

Quran 3: 128, which means:
(You [Mohammed] have nothing to do at all with the matter [of their guidance a]; even [God] may turn toward them or punish them [if they keep up with their disbelief]; for they, indeed, are wrong-doers [who deserve to be punished.] b)
...............................................................................

128 a But in fact their guidance is up to God.

Another aya similar to this aya is in chapter 28: 56, which means:
(You [Mohammed] cannot guide aright whomsoever you like, but God does guide whomsoever He will [and being worthy of guidance.] )

128 b The meaning: Mohammed, the matter of their guidance is not up to you, so that you pray for your people;

but the matter of their guidance as a whole is up to God;

so that anyone of them who is worthy of guidance, then God will guide him to the Islam and turn towards him;

and whoever does not deserve the guidance because he is a wrong-doer who wrongs people, then God does not guide him, but will punish him in this life of the World by killing or defeating and captivity, and in the Next Life He will punish him in the fire.

6 a i.e. the idols which became the monuments of the ancients.

It means: Because of their sanctification of the monuments which their fathers left behind, and their worshipping such monuments or idols; and because they do not listen to your words and refrain from worshipping the idols.

More about these monuments leftbehind by thier fathers. It reads to me that there is memory of real power, those who left very big pieces of perfectly machined megaliths all over the world perhaps. It seems the people are being pressured to forget past power.

So you glorify the monuments of the ancient and don't glorify God Almighty .. this is the idolatry in fact.

It's the truth. Leafs Nation is an idolatrous heathen cult.

[Torch light]

There are many ayat in the Glorious Quran, where God - be glorified - explained to the prophet that his duty is only to convey the message clearly, and it is not his duty to guide people, and that guidance is up to God alone: He alone can guide or misguide people.

God also explained that He guides the one who deserves the guidance, and He misguides the one who deserves the misguidance.

So He guides the kind-hearted; and misguides the hard-hearted: the wrong-doer and the transgressor.

Therefore, O prophet, don't surprise that a large number of people do not respond to you nor believe in God alone:

so now you have known the true reason of their blasphemy; and they oppose you and deny God's revelations: only because they are wrong-doers who transgress on the weak and on orphans.

Like this aya of the Quran 6: 33, which means:
(Surely, We know [the words] which they say [that you are mad, a sorcerer and a poet] grieve you [Mohammed],

but surely it is not you whom they disbelieve [within their hearts; because they know your truthfulness],

and [actually] the wrong-doers [among them] a deny the revelations of God b [because of their pride and stubbornness.] c)

The eastern cornerstone of the Kaaba contains the Black Stone or al-Ħajaru l-Aswad, which is generally thought to be a meteorite remnant. It,s OK for you but not for me eh.

 

[Torch light]

The black stone is included in the building of the House of God at Mecca; it is not more than a stone. It may be a meteorite which was a landmark for Abraham to know that the Ancient House had been built by Adam at that particular spot; and so Abraham included it within the building of the Kaaba: i.e. the cube, which is the House of God at Mecca; at that ancient time it had been called Becca.

It does not change anything that you like it or not; everyone is responsible about his belief and work.

There is an aya in the Quran which implies that God guided Abraham to the exact spot where the Ancient House had been built by Adam in Becca.
