Tafsir
And when they said ‘O God! If this that Muhammad (s) recites be indeed the truth revealed from You then rain down stones upon us from the heaven or bring on us a painful chastisement’ in return for our denial of it this was said by al-Nadr and others in mockery and in delusion that he had some insight and certainty about it the Qur’ān being false.

Ibn Abbas Commentary
(And when they said) it is al-Nadr Ibn al-Harth who said it: (O Allah! If this) which Muhammad (pbuh) says (be indeed the Truth from You) that You have no son or partner, (then rain down stones on us) on al-Nadr (or bring on us some painful doom!) On the Day of Badr, al-Nadr Ibn al-Harth was killed in captivity.
