Wherever in the Qur’an the expression, when He intends a thing, He says concerning it, Be,’ and it comes into being, is used, the reference invariably seems to be to the occurrence of an event of exceptional importance, particularly to the coming into being of a great moral and spiritual revolution through a Divine Reformer. In the verse under comment also the reference is to the great change which was wrought by the Holy Prophet.
