* تفسير Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs

{ وَإِمَّا يَنزَغَنَّكَ مِنَ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنِ نَزْغٌ فَٱسْتَعِذْ بِٱللَّهِ إِنَّهُ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ }

(And if a whisper from the devil reach thee (O Muhammad)) and if a whisper from the devil reaches you, you should reciprocate Abu Jahl's harshness with harshness like it (then seek refuge in Allah) from the accursed devil. (Lo! He is the Hearer) of what Abu Jahl says, (the Knower) of his punishment; it is also said that this means: He is the Hearer of your seeking refuge in Him, the Knower of the whispering of the devil.
