* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn

{ قَدْ نَعْلَمُ إِنَّهُ لَيَحْزُنُكَ ٱلَّذِي يَقُولُونَ فَإِنَّهُمْ لاَ يُكَذِّبُونَكَ وَلَـٰكِنَّ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ بِآيَاتِ ٱللَّهِ يَجْحَدُونَ }

We know indeed qad is a confirmative particle that it grieves you that matter which they say to you in denial; yet it is not that they deny you in secret for they know that you are truthful a variant reading for lā yukadhdhibūnaka ‘not that they deny you’ has lā yukdhibūnak that is to say ‘they do not associate you with mendacity’ but evildoers al-zālimīn replaces the previous pronominalisation ‘they’ knowingly reject deny the signs of God the Qur’ān.
