In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the

أَمْ تُرِيدُونَ أَن تَسْـَٔلُوا۟ رَسُولَكُمْ كَمَا سُئِلَ مُوسَىٰ مِن قَبْلُ وَمَن يَتَبَدَّلِ ٱلْكُفْرَبِٱلْإِيمَٰنِ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ سَوَآءَ ٱلسَّبِيلِ (108)

108. Or would ye question
your Messenger as Moses was questioned aforetime? He who chooseth disbelief
instead of faith, verily he hath gone astray from a right path.

Commentary
We have studied about abrogation of the
verses in the last lesson that when God Almighty abrogates or causes to be
forgotten such of His Revelations, He brings (in place) one better or the like
thereof. It has been proved in the light of events/incidents and history that
whenever any Heavenly Scripture was caused to be forgotten or abrogated; then
one better or the like thereof was revealed in place of it and the Servants of
God Almighty (peace be upon them) were not disappointed from the Guidance of
Allah Almighty.
Now one famous matter is being illuminated
in this verse, which is Guidance about asking questions from the Merciful
Messenger Muhammad (glory, grace, peace and blessings be upon Him). The
Children of Israel used to try to produce various sorts of doubts in the hearts
of Muslims, about the Messenger of God Almighty (glory, grace, peace and
blessings be upon Him) and The Holy Qur’an,
and say them to ask questions from the Prophet of Allah Almighty (glory, grace,
peace and blessings be upon Him) to clear their doubts. Actually, their aim
was: If the Muslims do not accept their religion then they, at the very least,
will become suspicious from their own religion and Islamic teachings. Some
Muslims used to ask unreasonable questions from the Last Messenger (glory,
grace, peace and blessings be upon Him) due to not knowing the conspiracy and
plan of the Children of Israel. God Almighty forbade them from such
questioning.
There is another purpose of preventing from asking questions also
from the Prophet of God Almighty (glory, grace, peace and blessings be upon
Him). Due to questioning over and over, it becomes cause of increasing the
difficulties and restrictions over oneself by the human beings. Easy commands
become difficult. The matters, in which a person had freedom, after the
Revelation of orders that individual has been restricted. It all was happened
with the Children of Israel. For instance; story of the Cow does exist
before us.
