The Holy Quran 33:39 — Surah Al-Ahzab

Arabic text

ٱلَّذِينَ يُبَلِّغُونَ رِسَـٰلَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ وَيَخْشَوْنَهُۥ وَلَا يَخْشَوْنَ أَحَدًا إِلَّا ٱللَّهَ ۗ وَكَفَىٰ بِٱللَّهِ حَسِيبًا

Translation

(The Ambiyaa عليهم الصلاة والسلام were) Those who propagate Allaah's messages, who fear Him and do not fear anyone but Allaah. (When fulfilling Allaah's commands, they had no concern for the criticism of people.) Allaah suffices as One who takes reckoning. (It is only to Him that people have to answer on the Day of Qiyaamah and not to anyone else.)

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

There is no harm in marrying the wife of an adopted son: that is, Allah’s command is irrevocable; what has been decided with Him will certainly come to pass. So what objection can there be to a prophet doing something that has become lawful in the shariah? The prophets and messengers have never, in conveying Allah’s messages, feared anyone but Him.
