﴿ وَلَقَدْ صَرَّفْنَا فِى هَٰذَا ٱلْقُرْءَانِ لِلنَّاسِ مِن كُلِّ مَثَلٍۢ ۚ وَكَانَ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ أَكْثَرَ شَىْءٍۢ جَدَلًۭا ﴾

“THUS, INDEED, have We given in this Qur'an many facets to every kind of lesson [designed] for [the benefit of] mankind. However, man is, above all else, always given to contention:”

(And verily We have displayed) We have explained (for mankind) for the people of Mecca (in this Qur'an all manner of similitudes) all forms of threats and promises in order that they take heed and, hence, believe, (but man) Ubayy Ibn Khalaf al-Jumahi (is more than anything contentious) in respect to falsehood; it is also said that this means: no one is more contentious than man.
