Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs
(How should I fear that which ye set up beside Him) of idols, (when ye fear not) Allah (to set up beside Allah that for which He hath revealed unto you no warrant) no Scripture or proof? They threatened him with their gods, saying: we fear that if you vilify our gods, they will take away your sanity. (Which of the two factions) which of the adherents of the two religions: you or I (hath more right to safety) from the God Whom he worships? ((Answer me that) if ye have knowledge) of this.
