فَتَوَلَّوْا عَنْهُ مُدْبِرِينَ (90)
(37:90) So turning their backs, they went away from him. *50
*50) This sentence by itself shows the real state of the affairs. It appears that the people might be going to sane fair of theirs. The family of the Prophet Abraham might have asked him also to accompany them. He might have excused himself, saying that he was indisposed, and therefore, could not go. Had it been something contrary to fact, the people of the house would have said: "You look perfectly normal: you are making a false excuse. But when they accepted his excuse and left him behind, it clearly shows that the Prophet Abraham must at that titre be suffering from cough and cold or sane other such visible illness on account of which the people of the house agreed to leave him behind.
