29. 1. That is, the one whom they persuaded to kill the she-camel, whose name is said to be Qidar bin Salif, they called him so that he would do his work.
29. 2. He took a sword and seized the she-camel and cut its legs and then slaughtered it. Some have interpreted فَتَعَاطَیٰ to mean فَجَسَرَ, thus he dared.
