Ibn Abbas Commentary
(And the pangs of childbirth drove her unto the trunk of the palm-tree) a dry palm-tree. (She said: Oh, would that I had died ere this) this child; and it is said that this means: before this day (and had become a thing of naught, forgotten) an abandoned thing which is never mentioned! And it is also said that this means: a still born child.
