(1). 3232. Ibn 'Abbās said: "Abū Tālib fell ill, so the Quraish went to see him, and the Prophet ﷺ went to see him. There was a gathering there with Abū Tālib, so Abū Jahl stood up enraged, to prevent him (the Prophet ﷺ from entering)." He said: "He complained to Abū Tālib. So he (Abū Tālib) said: 'O my nephew! What is it that you want from your people?' He said: 'I only want one word from them, for which, if they were to say it, then the Arabs will become their
followers, and the non-Arabs will pay Jizyah to them.' He said: 'One word?' He replied: 'One word.' So he said: 'O uncle! Let them say Lā Ilāha Illallāh' so they replied: 'One God.? We have not heard (the like) of this in the religion of these later days. This is nothing but an invention.'" He said: "So the (following) was revealed in the Qur'an about them: 'Sād. By the Qur'an full of reminding. Those who disbelieve are in false pride and opposition...' up to His saying: 'We have not heard (the like) of this in the religion of these later days. This is nothing but an invention.'" [1] (Da'f)

Commentary
The Qur'an is a consistent and a perfect reminder, it reminds of all the facts nurtured in human nature, it also reminds of the Guidance that Allāh sent through the Messengers for the human beings. Therefore, there is no shade of deficiency in the admonishment and advice in the Qur'an. These disbelievers are in fact denying the Truth, because of their being stubborn, arrogant and argumentative.
