Transliteration:( Wa aatainaahum Aayaatinaa fakaanoo 'anhaa mu'rideen )
And We gave them Our signs [92], but they turned away from them [93].
✅ [92] The Miraculous Signs
The “signs” refer to the she-camel that miraculously emerged from a rock. It was massive, gave birth instantly, drank all the water in the well on its day, and provided milk in abundance.
This one miracle included multiple astonishing traits, hence the plural term “signs” is used—showing that it was a composite miracle.
✅ [93] Rejection Despite Clear Proof
Despite witnessing these signs, the people turned away. Instead of believing, they killed the she-camel—an act of open rebellion.
They ignored the blessing in front of them: although the she-camel drank all the water, she provided enough milk for the entire community.
This illustrates that only those favored by Allah are guided by miracles—others remain blind despite clear proof.
(15:81) We also gave them Our Signs, yet they turned away from them.
