Through this verse, in a surprising manner, Muslims are asked that; How would and how could they recant and become disbelievers, in spite of their connection with God's inspiration and while the revelations of Allah are rehearsed and recited to them. And besides that the Messenger of Allah was among them too!? That is to say: If others go astray is not that much astonishing as a Muslim would be misled. At the end of the verse, Muslims are advised to adhere to Allah and stick fast to HIM and to HIS Mercy so that they might be guided to follow their prophet and their straight path.
