Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs
(In like manner We have revealed unto thee the Scripture) He says: thus We sent Gabriel to you with the Scripture so that you recite to them that which it contains of commands, prohibitions and similitudes, (and those unto whom We gave the Scripture aforetime) those to whom We gave the knowledge of the Torah, i.e. 'Abdullah Ibn Salam and his followers (will believe therein) in Muhammad (pbuh) and in the Qur'an; (and of these (also)) of the people of Mecca (there are some who believe therein) who believe in Muhammad (pbuh) and in the Qur'an. (And none deny our revelations) i.e. Muhammad (pbuh) and the Qur'an (save the disbelievers) Ka'b and his host and Abu Jahl and his host.
