📖 Commentary of Surah Al-Hijr – Verse 72

By your life [Prophet Muhammad], they were wandering blindly in their intoxication [83].

✅ [83] The Supreme Status of the Prophet ﷺ

From this we learn that the life of the Holy Prophet ﷺ is the most beloved to Allah Almighty, because He has not sworn on anyone’s life besides that of our beloved Prophet. It also tells us that even if the infidel is outwardly in his senses, inwardly he is always out of his senses. Any intelligence and sense which cannot distinguish between good and evil is indeed bereft of intelligence and sense.

Such a person is always groping in the wilderness. Here, this word refers either to the infidels of Makkah or the people of Hazrat Lut (On whom be peace). The former is more apparent. In such a case, this sentence is questionable, meaning it is a rhetorical challenge to their misguided behavior.
