Tafseer
'Abdullāh Ibn 'Abbās / Muḥammad al-Fīrūzabādī
تفسير : (hath not man seen) does not ubayy ibn khalaf know (that we have created him from a drop of seed) of a weak and stinking sperm drop? (yet lo! he is an open opponent) he openly argues in falsehood.
Jalāl al-Dīn al-Maḥallī
تفسير : or has man — namely, [the like of] al-‘Āsī b. wā’il — not seen, [has he not] realised, that we created him from a drop, of sperm [and so on in stages] until we made him powerful and strong. then lo! he is an open adversary, severely antagonistic towards us, [openly] making this manifest by his denial of resurrection.
