Transliteration:( Awalaa ya'lamoona annal laaha ya'lamu maa yusirroona wa maa yu'linoon )
"Do they not know that Allah knows what they conceal and what they disclose? [138]"
This verse reminds us that Allah is fully aware of both what people conceal in their hearts and what they openly express.
It specifically addresses the Yahud, who tried to hide the truth about the Holy Prophet ﷺ that was clearly mentioned in their scriptures.
They would withhold this information from others and discourage its discussion.
A lesson lies here for certain Muslims today—those who discourage or dissuade others from attending gatherings where the Holy Prophet ﷺ is praised or remembered are following the same pattern of the Yahud.
Preventing people from accessing or honoring prophetic knowledge is a condemned practice, and this verse serves as a warning against such actions.
