* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn


{ فَلَوْلاَ أُلْقِيَ عَلَيْهِ أَسْوِرَةٌ مِّن ذَهَبٍ أَوْ جَآءَ مَعَهُ ٱلْمَلاَئِكَةُ مُقْتَرِنِينَ }

Why then if he were being truthful have bracelets of gold asāwira is the plural of aswira which is the plural of siwār similar in pattern to ghurāb aghriba not been cast on him — as according to their custom with those whom they made their leaders dressing them with gold bracelets and gold necklaces — or the angels not come with him one after the other?’ in succession to testify to his truthfulness.
