Walaqad sarrafna lilnnasi fee hatha alqurani min kulli mathalin faaba aktharu alnnasi illa kufooran

Tafsir of Verse 89

We have indeed turned about for men in this Koran every manner of similitude; yet most men refuse all but unbelief.

And We have explained to man, in this Qur'an, every kind of similitude: yet the greater part of men refuse (to receive it) except with ingratitude!

The last verse: وَلَقَدْ صَرَّ‌فْنَا (And surely We have explained - 89) tells us that the Holy Qur’ an stands out as a miracle so clear that it leaves no room for any question and doubt. Still, what is happening is that people do not thank Allah for His blessings, do not even recognize the real worth of the blessing of the Qur'an and keep wandering around in error.
