أَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِهِۦ ۚ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌۭ طَاغُونَ
Did they suggest it to them? Rather, they [themselves] are a transgressing people.

Tafsir
Ibn Kathīr (abridged)

Allah comforts His Prophet by saying to Him, `just as these idolators denied you, the disbelievers of old used the same words with their Messengers,'
