4:28 Another reason behind the revelation of the law is that a human being is weak by nature. By himself, he is unable to determine the ways of spiritual advancement; without Divine Guidance, he cannot devise functioning family laws and determine a workable framework of social relationships for his own advantage and advancement. Allâh does not seek to entrust a human being with a task that he cannot accomplish. The human weakness to which the verse refers does not signify that he cannot act in accordance with the law, but that he cannot make the law by himself. This was a burden that Allâh made light for humankinds well-being.
