Meaning
And Elias was indeed one of the messengers. (Remember) when he said to his people, “Will you not fear (Allah)? Do you call upon (the idol of) Ba’l and abandon the Best of Creators— Allah, your Lord and the Lord of your forefathers?” But they rejected him, so they will certainly be brought (for punishment). But not the chosen servants of Allah. We blessed him (with honourable mention) among later generations: “Peace be upon Elias.” Indeed, this is how We reward the good-doers. He was truly one of Our faithful servants.
