O you who believe! do not say, “”Listen to us {12},”” but say, “”Look at us and listen,”” and for the infidels there is a painful punishment.
“The word ‘Ra’ina’ translated as ‘Listen to us’, with a twist of the tongue means ‘He is foolish’, therefore believers are instructed to use other words while addressing Prophet Muhammed (PBH) who is to be given respect to such an extent that even words with ambiguous meaning are to be avoided. It appears that the infidels twisted their tongues while pronouncing the word ‘Ra’ina’ they are therefore warned of a painful punishment.”
Ra’ina:
The word ‘Ra’ina’ translated as “Listen to us”, with a twist of the tongue means, “He is foolish”, therefore an unambiguous word is suggested in its place.
