Asbabu n-Nuzuul (Occasions of Revelation)

Scolding of Abu Jahl and the Threat of seizing Him

Then Allah says,

أَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي يَنْهَى ﴿٩﴾

عَبْدًا إِذَا صَلَّى ﴿١٠﴾

Have you seen him who prevents. A servant when he prays?

This was revealed about Abu Jahl, may Allah curse him. He threatened the Prophet for performing Salah at the Ka`bah. Thus, Allah firstly admonished him with that which was better by saying,

نزلت في أبي جهل لعنه الله توعد النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم على الصلاة عند البيت فوعظه تعالى بالتي هي أحسن أولا.

" أرأيت " في الثلاثة مواضع للتعجب " الذي ينهى " هو أبو جهل

وهو أبو جهل
