Quran 21:7 – Only Male Messengers?
Al-Anbiya – 21:7
Arabic
وَمَآ أَرۡسَلۡنَا قَبۡلَكَ إِلَّا رِجَالًا نُّوحِىٓ إِلَيۡهِمْۖ فَسۡـَٔلُوٓاْ أَهۡلَ ٱلذِّكۡرِ إِن كُنتُمۡ لَا تَعۡلَمُونَ
Does this ayah imply there were only male messengers because of the use of rijaal?
In 33:4 rajul is used but seems to imply humans in general. Ghamidi sahab translates it as human too for 21:7 but the word rijaal is used so I’m not sure
