Allah certainly does not feel shy that He sets up The example of a gnat – or what is beyond that. So, as far those who believed, they know That this surely is the truth from their God. And as far as those who disbelieved, then they would say, “What had Allah destined with this example? He lets go astray with it many. And He guides with it many.” And He does not let anyone go astray except the disobedient.
