Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs
(When they) the disbelievers of Mecca (came upon you from above you) from above the valley: Talhah Ibn Khuwaylid al-Asdi and his host (and from below you) from below the valley: Abu'l-A'war al-Aslami and his host and Abu Sufyan and his host, (and when eyes grew wild) when the eyes of the hypocrites grew wild (and hearts) the hearts of the hypocrites (reached to the throats) because of fear, (and ye were imagining vain thoughts concerning Allah) and thought, O host of hypocrites, that Allah will not help His prophet.
