قرآن حکیم (شرح آیات منتخب)

دلیلی محکم؛ روشی بی‌نظیر

این جمله از یه که می‌فرماید:«و ما یا شما بر (طریق) هدایت یا در ضلالت آشکاری هستیم.» خود می‌تواند پایةٌ دلیلی را تشکیل دهد؛ دلیلی واقع‌بینانه و توأم با نهایت انصاف و ادب؛ به گونه‌ای که طرف مقابل از مرکب لجاجت و غرور پایین آید و به اندیشه و فکر بپردازد. خداوند با این جمله به پیامبرش می‌فرماید به کافران بگوید که عقیدةٌ ما و شما با هم تضاد روشنی دارد و بنابر این ممکن نیست هر دو بر حق باشیم؛ چرا که جمع بین نقیضین امکان ندارد؛ پس حتما یک گروه» اهل هدایت است و گروه دوم گرفتار ضلالت. اکنون بیندیشید و نشانه‌ها را در هر دو گروه بنگرید تا در یایید کدام یک هدایت یافته و کدام یک گمراه است. این یکی از بهشرین روش‌های مناظره و بحث است که طرف را به اندیشه و خودجوشی وا دارند.
