(3:149) Believers! If you follow those who deny the Truth, they will drive you back on your heels, *108 and you will turn about, losers.

This reverse was offered as proof that Muhammad (peace be on him) was an ordinary person whose fortunes varied, like those of other men, between victory and defeat. They further contended that the support and patronage of God which Muhammad claimed to enjoy was a sham.
