Qurʾān Ibn Rajab's Fifty Riyāḍ al-Ṣāliḥīn al-Adab al-Mufrad al-Luʾluʾ wa-al-Marjān Bukhārī Muslim Abū Dāwūd Tirmidhī Nasāʾī Ibn Mājah Dārimī Aḥmad Mālik Ḥākim Ibn Ḥibbān Bazzār Ibn Khuzaymah Ṭabarānī Nasāʾī's Kubrá Bayhaqī Aḥmad's Zuhd Suyūṭī
quran:8:32 –

And ˹remember˺ when they said, "O Allah, if this should be the truth from You, then rain down upon us stones from the sky or bring us a painful punishment."

And when they said, ‘O God! If this, that Muhammad (s) recites, be indeed the truth, revealed, from You, then rain down stones upon us from the heaven, or bring on us a painful chastisement’, in return for ˹our˺ denial of it: this was said by al-Nadr and others, in mockery and in delusion that he had some insight and certainty about it ˹the Qur’ān˺ being false.

القرآن:٨:٣٢ –

وَإِذْ قَالُوا اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كَانَ هَٰذَا هُوَ الْحَقَّ مِنْ عِنْدِكَ فَأَمْطِرْ عَلَيْنَا حِجَارَةً مِنَ السَّمَاءِ أَوِ ائْتِنَا بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ

{وإذ قالوا اللهم إن كان هذا} الذي يقرؤه محمد {هو الحقَّ} المنزل {من عندك فأمطر علينا حجارة من السماء أو ائتنا بعذاب أليم} مؤلم على إنكاره قاله النصر، وغيره استهزاءً وإيهاما أنه على بصيرة وجزم ببطلانه.
