    His statement: ( Or do they say: he has fabricated it ) He, exalted is His mention, says: or do these polytheists (mushrikīn) say: Muḥammad has fabricated this Qurʾān and invented it himself.

    His statement: ( No, they do not believe ) He, exalted is His praise, says: they have lied in what they said about that; no, they do not believe, so that they would hold as true the truth that has come to them from their Lord.

    وقوله ( أَمْ يَقُولُونَ تَقَوَّلَهُ ) يقول تعالى ذكره: أم يقول هؤلاء المشركون: تقوّل محمد هذا القرآن وتخلَّقه. وقوله ( بَلْ لا يُؤْمِنُونَ ) يقول جلّ ثناؤه: كذبوا فيما قالوا من ذلك, بل لا يؤمنون فيصدّقوا بالحقّ الذي جاءهم من عند ربهم.
