فَقَالُوۤاْ أَبَشَراً مِّنَّا وَاحِداً نَّتَّبِعُهُ إِنَّآ إِذاً لَّفِي ضَلاَلٍ وَسُعُرٍ
٢٤
-Al-Qamar ( القمر )

Tafsir al-Jalalayn

and they said, ‘Is it a mortal (basharan is in the accusative because it is governed [by a succeeding verb]) alone among us (minnā wāhidan are both adjectives of basharan) that we are to follow? (nattabi‘uhu, this explains the verb which renders it [basharan, ‘mortal’] accusative; the interrogative is meant as a negative, in other words: why should we follow him when there are many of us and he is only one among us and not a king? That is to say, we will not follow him). Then indeed, if we were to follow him, we would be in error, a parting with reason, and insanity!
