Prophetic Commentary on the Qur'an (Tafseer of the Prophet (pbuh))

Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 4648

اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كَانَ هَذَا هُوَ الْحَقَّ مِنْ عِنْدِكَ فَأَمْطِرْ عَلَيْنَا حِجَارَةً مِنَ السَّمَاءِ أَوِ ائْتِنَا بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ} فَنَزَلَتْ {وَمَا كَانَ اللَّهُ لِيُعَذِّبَهُمْ وَأَنْتَ فِيهِمْ وَمَا كَانَ اللَّهُ مُعَذِّبَهُمْ وَهُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُون

Allāhumma in kāna hadhā huwa al-ḥaqqa min ʿindika fa-amṭir ʿalaynā ḥijāratan mina as-samāʾi awi āʾtinā biʿadhābin alīmin fanazalat wamā kāna-Llāh liyuʿadhibahum wa-anta fīhim wamā kāna-Llāh muʿadhibahum wahum yastaghfirūn

The full narration

Narrated Anas bin Malik:Abu Jahl said, "O Allah! If this (Qur'an) is indeed the Truth from You, then rain down on us a shower of stones from the sky or bring on us a painful torment." So Allah revealed:-- "But Allah would not punish them while you were amongst them, nor He will punish them while they seek (Allah's) forgiveness..." (8.33) And why Allah should not punish them while they turn away (men) from Al- Masjid-al-Haram (the Sacred Mosque of Mecca)
