| Many verses like the following verse are indirect proofs that the people of Mecca used to call Muhammad mad.Otherwise why the Qur'an would contain statements like "Muhammad is not mad"?
| |
| {{Quote|{{Quran-range|68|2|6}}|Thou art not, by the Grace of thy Lord, mad or possessed.
| |
|
| |
| Nay, verily for thee is a Reward unfailing:
| |
|
| |
| And thou (standest) on an exalted standard of character.
| |
|
| |
| Soon wilt thou see, and they will see,
| |
|
| |
| Which of you is afflicted with madness.}}
| |
|
| |
| {{Quote|{{Quran-range|68|51|52}}| And the Unbelievers would almost trip thee up with their eyes when they hear the Message; and they say: "Surely he is possessed!"
| |
|
| |
| But it is nothing less than a Message to all the worlds.}}
| |
|
| |
| {{Quote|{{Quran-range|81|22|25}}|And (O people!) your companion is not one possessed;
| |
|
| |
| And without doubt he saw him in the clear horizon.
| |
|
| |
| Neither doth he withhold grudgingly a knowledge of the Unseen.
| |
|
| |
| Nor is it the word of an evil spirit accursed.}}

|
| |
| Nobody is known to have seen Gabriel as he narrated the Qur'an to Muhammad. People instead had reactions like this:
| |
|
| |
| {{Quote|{{Quran-range|25|7|9}}|And they say: "What sort of an apostle is this, who eats food, and walks through the streets? '''Why has not an angel been sent down to him to give admonition with him?'''
| |
|
| |
| "Or (Why) has not a treasure been bestowed on him, or why has he (not) a garden for enjoyment?" The wicked say: "Ye follow none other than a man bewitched."
| |
|
| |
| See what kinds of comparisons they make for thee! But they have gone astray, and never a way will they be able to find!}}
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| {{Quote|{{Quran-range|15|6|8}}|They say: "O thou to whom the Message is being revealed! truly thou art mad (or possessed)!
| |
|
| |
| "Why bringest thou not angels to us if it be that thou hast the Truth?"C
| |
|
| |
| We send not the angels down except for just cause: if they came (to the ungodly), behold! No respite would they have!
