Surah 52

Surah 52:29

"So remind (them)! By the blessing of your Lord, you are neither an oracle-giver nor possessed."

52.29 – By the blessing of your Lord, you are neither an oracle-giver nor possessed
The Quran reassures the messenger in the face of accusations from his audience. The audience also seems to characterize the messenger as a poet (v. 30). On the negative sense of “poet,” see the comment at 21.5.
