* تفسير Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs

{ وَمَا كُنتَ تَرْجُوۤ أَن يُلْقَىٰ إِلَيْكَ ٱلْكِتَابُ إِلاَّ رَحْمَةً مِّن رَّبِّكَ فَلاَ تَكُونَنَّ ظَهيراً لِّلْكَافِرِينَ }

(Thou hadst no hope) O Muhammad (that the Scripture would be inspired in thee) that Gabriel would come down to you with the Qur'an and that you will be a prophet; (but it is a mercy from your Lord) but it is a blessing and honour from your Lord that He sent down Gabriel to you with the Qur'an, (so never be a helper to the disbelievers) by disbelieving.
