Ibn Abbas Commentary

(That We may test them thereby) in order that they may revert to that which I have ordained for them, (and whoso turneth away from the remembrance of his Lord) and whoever turns away from believing in the divine Oneness and Scripture of his Lord, i.e. the Qur'an-this refers to al-Walid Ibn al-Mughirah al-Makhzumi; (He will thrust him into ever growing torment) climbing a mountain of smooth stones; and it is said this means: climbing a mountain of copper in the Fire.

so that We may try them test them therein and so know through knowledge outwardly manifested the nature of their gratitude. And whoever turns away from the remembrance of his Lord from the Qur’ān We will admit him naslukhu or read first person yaslukhu ‘He will admit him’ into a tortuous chastisement.
