O mankind! proof from your Fosterer has come to you and We have sent down to you a clear light.
The word ‘Burhan’ meaning ‘proof’ appears to refer to the Quran and Prophet Muhammed (PBH) who was a proof of, the mention of his messengership, by all Prophets 3:81, 61:6 and in the Torah and the Infeel 7:157. The clear light is the Quran which illuminates the path leading to paradise for those who hold fast to Allah (SWT) by following His message according to the teachings of His messenger. One has to realize the intimate relationship between the message and the messenger.
