وَقَالُواْ لَوۡلَا نُزِّلَ هَٰذَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانُ عَلَىٰ رَجُلٖ مِّنَ ٱلۡقَرۡيَتَيۡنِ عَظِيمٍ
And they exclaimed, “If only this Quran was revealed to a great man from ˹one of˺ the two cities!”
Commentary
The rejecting idolaters say, “Why did Allah not reveal this Qur’ān upon one of the two great men of Makkah or Taif: Al-Walīd ibn ‘Uqbah or ‘Urwah ibn Mas‘ūd Al-Thaqafī, instead of revealing it upon the poor, orphaned Muhammad?”
