And when Our signs the Qur’ān are recited to them namely to the people of Mecca being clear signs manifest signs bayyinātin is a circumstantial qualifier those who disbelieve from among them say of the truth that is the Qur’ān when it comes to them ‘This is plain sorcery!’ clear and evident sorcery.
Ibn Abbas Commentary
(And when Our clear revelations) when the clear revelations of the Qur'an which explain the commands and prohibitions (are recited unto them) unto the disbelievers of Mecca, (those who disbelieve) the disbelievers of Mecca (say of the Truth) of the Qur'an (when it reacheth them) when the Prophet (pbuh) came to them: (This is mere magic) this is a manifest lie.
