And We had already taken a promise from Adam before, but he forgot; and We found not in him determination.
Ibn Kathir
Tafseer 'Ibn Kathir' (EN)
The Story of Adam and Iblis
Allah tells,
وَلَقَدْ عَهِدْنَا إِلَى ادَمَ مِن قَبْلُ فَنَسِيَ وَلَمْ نَجِدْ لَهُ عَزْمًا
And indeed We made a covenant with Adam before, but he forgot, and We found on his part no firm willpower.
Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that Ibn Abbas said,
"Verily, man was named Insan only because he was given a covenant, but he forgot it (Nasiya)."
Ali bin Abi Talhah reported the same from Ibn Abbas.
Mujahid and Al-Hasan said that he forgot means,
"He abandoned it."
