The Holy Quran 26:211 — Surah Ash-Shu'ara

Arabic text

وَمَا يَنۢبَغِى لَهُمْ وَمَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ

Translation

It (bringing down the Qur'aan) is not suited to them (because while the Qur'aan provides guidance, the Shayaateen can provide only misguidance), nor have they the capability (to overhear any part of the Qur'aan in the heavens before it was transmitted to Rasulullaah because Allaah had sealed off the corridors to the heavens for them and whoever tried to overhear something was destroyed by a flaming star).

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

وما تَنَزَّلَتْ بالقرآن على محمد الشياطين- كما يزعم الكفرة- ولا يصح منهم ذلك، وما يستطيعونه؛ لأنهم عن استماع القرآن من السماء محجوبون مرجومون بالشهب.
