That is, He Almighty is able to do that, but His Almighty wisdom requires delaying it, because if He sent it down in accordance with what they asked for and then they did not believe, they would soon be punished, just as He did to the nations of the past, as God Almighty said. And what prevented us from sending signs except that the ancients denied them, and We brought Thamud the she-camel with sight, so they wronged her, and We do not send signs except out of fear.
أي هو تعالى قادر على ذلك ولكن حكمته تعالى تقتضي تأخير ذلك لأنه لو أنزلها وفق ما طلبوه ثم لم يؤمنوا لعاجلهم بالعقوبة كما فعل بالأمم السالفة كما قال تعالى وما منعنا أن نرسل بالآيات إلا أن كذب بها الأولون وآتينا ثمود الناقة مبصرة فظلموا بها وما نرسل بالآيات إلا تخويفا
الحافظ ابن كثير · تفسير ابن كثير
▶ Summary of the Prophet’s biography | Episode (41) | Quraysh asked for verses
God Almighty is the guide of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, to prove the truth of what he brought to them. He is a witness to me and to you, and He knows what I brought to you. If I were a liar to him, he would take revenge on me even more severely, as God Almighty said. And if you said some words against us, we would take an oath from him, then we would cut off both ties from him. And God Almighty says, “Indeed, He is of His servants an All-Seeing One,” meaning He is All-Knowing of them, who deserves bounties, goodness, and guidance, and who deserves misfortune, misguidance, and deception.
يقول تعالى مرشد النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم إلى الحجة على قومه في صدق ما جاءهم به إنه شاهد علي وعليكم عالم بما جئتكم به فلو كنت كاذبا عليه انتقم مني أشد لانتقام كما قال تعالى ولو تقول علينا بعض الأقاويل لأخذنا منه باليمين ثم لقطعنا منه الوتين وقوله تعالى إنه كان بعباده خبيرا بصيرا أي عليم بهم بمن يستحق الإنعام والإحسان والهداية ممن يستحق الشقاء والإضلال والإزاغة

Behind me, I heard a saying, by God, I have never heard anything like it. By God, it is not poetry, nor magic, nor fortune-telling. O people of Quraysh, obey me and make it in me. Leave this man alone with what he is in, so isolate him. By God, his statement that I heard from him will be of great news. If the Arabs attack him, you have sufficed for him with others. And if he prevails over the Arabs, then his kingdom is your kingdom, and his honor is your glory, and you will be the happiest of people because of him.

By God, we are going to go to the land of Abyssinia, and Omar has gone to attend to some of our needs. Omar Ibn al-Khattab came and stood upon him while he was on his trap, and we were facing calamity from him and hardship upon us. So he said, “Let us go, Umm Abdullah,” so I said, “Yes, by God, we will go out in the land of God. You have harmed us and oppressed us until God provides us with a way out.” So he said, “May God be with you.” I saw a kindness in him that I had not seen before, and then he left, and I saw that our departure made him sad. She said, “Amer came from that need of his, so I said, O Abu.” Abdullah, if you saw Omar above and his tenderness and sadness for us, he said, “So he hopes for his conversion to Islam.” I said, “Yes.” He said, “What I saw will not be safe until Donkey Al-Khattab surrenders.” He said, despairing of him because of what he saw of his harshness and harshness toward Islam.
