عَنْ أَبِي يَحْيَى مَوْلَى ابْنِ عُقَيْلٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا لَقَدْ عُلِّمْتُ آيَةً مِنْ الْقُرْآنِ مَا سَأَلَنِي عَنْهَا رَجُلٌ قَطُّ فَمَا أَدْرِي أَعَلِمَهَا النَّاسُ فَلَمْ يَسْأَلُوا عَنْهَا أَمْ لَمْ يَفْطِنُوا لَهَا فَيَسْأَلُوا عَنْهَا ثُمَّ طَفِقَ يُحَدِّثُنَا فَلَمَّا قَامَ تَلَاوَمْنَا أَنْ لَا نَكُونَ سَأَلْنَاهُ عَنْهَا فَقُلْتُ أَنَا لَهَا إِذَا رَاحَ غَدًا فَلَمَّا رَاحَ الْغَدَ قُلْتُ يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ذَكَرْتَ أَمْسِ أَنَّ آيَةً مِنْ الْقُرْآنِ لَمْ يَسْأَلْكَ عَنْهَا رَجُلٌ قَطُّ فَلَا تَدْرِي أَعَلِمَهَا النَّاسُ فَلَمْ يَسْأَلُوا عَنْهَا أَمْ لَمْ يَفْطِنُوا لَهَا فَقُلْتُ أَخْبِرْنِي عَنْهَا وَعَنِ اللَّاتِي قَرَأْتَ قَبْلَهَا قَالَ نَعَمْ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لِقُرَيْشٍ ((يَا مَعْشَرَ قُرَيْشٍ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ يُعْبَدُ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ فِيهِ خَيْرٌ)) وَقَدْ عَلِمَتْ قُرَيْشٌ أَنَّ النَّصَارَى تَعْبُدُ عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ وَمَا تَقُولُ فِي مُحَمَّدٍ فَقَالُوا يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَلَسْتَ تَزْعُمُ أَنَّ عِيسَى كَانَ نَبِيًّا وَعَبْدًا مِنْ عِبَادِ اللَّهِ صَالِحًا فَلَئِنْ كُنْتَ صَادِقًا فَإِنَّ آلِهَتَهُمْ لَكَمَا تَقُولُونَ قَالَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ {وَلَمَّا ضُرِبَ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ مَثَلًا إِذَا قَوْمُكَ مِنْهُ يَصِدُّونَ} [الزخرف: 57] قَالَ قُلْتُ مَا يَصِدُّونَ قَالَ يَضِجُّونَ {وَإِنَّهُ لَعِلْمٌ لِلسَّاعَةِ} [الزخرف: 61] قَالَ هُوَ خُرُوجُ عِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ قَبْلَ يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas, may Allah be pleased with them both, he says: There is a verse of the Holy Qur’an, I know it, but no one has ever asked me about it. Now I do not know whether people know about it, so they do not ask, or they have not understood it enough to ask about it. Then he continued talking to us about other things, and when he stood up and left, we began to blame each other that we did not ask him about that verse. I (Abu Yahya) said: When he comes tomorrow, I will ask him. So when he came the next day, I said: O Ibn Abbas! Yesterday you mentioned a verse about which no one has asked you; now, is it that people have come to know about it, so they do not ask, or have they not understood it? He said: Yes, I will tell you. The Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said to the Quraysh: O assembly of Quraysh! There is no good in anyone who is worshipped besides Allah Almighty. Now the Quraysh knew that the Christians worshipped Isa ibn Maryam, peace be upon him, and they also knew what the Christians said about Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, that is, they denied his prophethood. So the people of Quraysh said: O Muhammad! Do you not claim that Sayyiduna Isa, peace be upon him, was a prophet and a righteous servant of Allah Almighty? Then, if you are truthful in this matter, their deity is just as you say (so there is no good left in Isa, peace be upon him)? So Allah Almighty revealed this verse: {وَلَمَّا ضُرِبَ ابْنُ مَرْیَمَ مَثَلًا إِذَا قَوْمُکَ مِنْہُ یَصِدُّونَ} … When the son of Mary is cited as an example, your people turn away from it. The narrator said: What does "yasiddoon" mean? He said: Making noise, while Allah Almighty says: {وَإِنَّہُ لَعِلْمٌ لِلسَّاعَۃِ} although the coming of Isa, peace be upon him, is one of the signs before the Day of Judgment.

Brief Explanation
Benefits: … In refutation of shirk and to clarify the insignificance of false deities, when it was said to the polytheists of Makkah that their deities would also enter Hell with them, what was meant by this were the stone idols which they used to worship, not those righteous people who, during their lifetimes, called people to tawhid (monotheism), but after their deaths, their followers made them into deities. Therefore, the hollow argument of the polytheists lost all value—that if their deities would enter Hell, then those prophets would also enter Hell, whom people began to worship, al-‘iyadhu billah (we seek refuge with Allah).
