Commentary
They said, meaning some of them to others: 'We have heard,' and they did not intend to glorify him despite his fame and the fame of his father and their greatness among them. So, one who does not know him dared to speak ill of him, and they denied him by saying: 'A young man,' meaning a youth among the youths, 'who speaks ill of them,' meaning by deficiency and blame. 'He is called Ibrahim,' they mean: he is the one who is thought to have done it.
