وَأَوْحَى رَبُّكَ إِلَى النَّحْلِ
Your Lord inspired the bee. (Qurʾān 16:68)
Here waḥy is used concerning the bee’s guidance. This does not place that event in the technical category of prophetic revelation. A word can have different ranges of meaning according to context; therefore, not every instance of waḥy establishes prophethood, nor does every experience called inspiration become a source of religious law.
The example highlights a necessary distinction: divine guidance of created beings can be affirmed, while the claim that a particular human inward prompting binds other people remains a separate proposition needing its own warrant.
