📖 Commentary of Surah Al-An’aam – Verse 66

"The leaders of his people said: 'Surely, we find you foolish [162], and we surely take you to be one of the liars.'"

✅ Accusing Prophets of Foolishness is Clear Disbelief [162]

To consider a Prophet as lacking in intelligence or wisdom is a mark of disbelief (kufr). The Prophets are the highest examples of knowledge, intellect, and understanding granted by Allah. The people of Aad, in their arrogance, claimed superiority over Hazrat Hud (عليه السلام) and accused him of foolishness and lying—a reflection of their prideful rejection of truth. Their denial was not based on any evidence but was rooted in their inflated self-image and spiritual blindness.
