It is mentioned that this verse was revealed concerning al-Naḍr ibn al-Ḥārith.
Al-Qāsim related to us, saying: al-Ḥusayn related to us, saying: Ḥajjāj related to me, on the authority of Ibn Jurayj, concerning the verse وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ يُجَادِلُ فِي اللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ (And among the people are those who dispute about Allah without knowledge): he said: "That is al-Naḍr ibn al-Ḥārith." And by His words مَنْ يُجَادِلُ فِي اللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ He means the one who disputes with Allah and claims that Allah is not able to bring the dead to life.
