How to respond to the weak argument of the disbelievers when they say: "If only an angel had been sent to us instead of a human being."?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The student: Transmitting this doubt from them... transmitting it is sufficient to refute it... or to respond to it...

The Shaykh : ...Just as it is said: Conceiving of this statement is sufficient to refute and invalidate it, meaning even the disbelievers of Quraysh said this in Surat al-An'am:
(8) And they say, "Why was there not sent down to him an angel?" But if We had sent down an angel, the matter would have been decided; then they would not be reprieved. (9) And if We had made him an angel, We would have made him [appear as] a man, and We would have covered them with that in which they cover themselves. (10) And already were messengers ridiculed before you وقالوا لولا أنزل عليه ملك ولو أنزلنا ملكا لقضي الأمر ثم لا ينظرون * ولو جعلناه ملكًا لجعلناه رجلا وللبسْنا عليهم ما يلبسون * ولقد اسْتُهزِئَ بالرسل من قبلك
[Al-An'am 6:8-10]
. Is that the end?
