One of the fundamental characteristics of unbelievers is their arro-
gance. It is that which has led them to refuse to obey the messengers of
Allah, and to resort to excuses in order not to do so. One such excuse was
that they would only obey these messengers if they were more than
human. Yet, the Prophet (saas) reminded his people that he was human, a
mere servant of Allah, and that all other such expectations were ground-
less, but that they should turn to Allah. Allah gave the Prophet (saas) the
following commands in the Qur'an:

The Prophet (saas) told his people that he was also commanded to
be one of the Muslims and to obey Allah, and that he was responsible for
warning the unbelievers, but that he could not be held responsible for
their choices. The verses in question read:
