The Holy Quran 14:4 — Surah Ibrahim

Arabic text

وَمَآ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا بِلِسَانِ قَوْمِهِۦ لِيُبَيِّنَ لَهُمْ ۖ فَيُضِلُّ ٱللَّهُ مَن يَشَآءُ وَيَهْدِى مَن يَشَآءُ ۚ وَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ

Translation

We sent every Rasool with the language of his nation so that he may clearly explain to them (Towheed and the injunctions of their Deen in a manner that they can understand). Then (even after the Rasool explains to them) Allaah allows whoever He wills to stray (totally) and guides (perfectly) whoever He wills. He is The Mighty, The Wise (He knows why He does this).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

All the prophets spoke the language of their own people: that is, just as We granted you this magnificent Book for the guidance of people, so too before this, in every age, We kept providing the means of guidance.
