Ibn `Abbas recited the Qur'anic Verse:--'Except to be kind to me for my kin-ship to you--" (42.23)Sa`id bin Jubair said, "(The Verse implies) the kinship of Muhammad." Ibn `Abbas said, "There wasnot a single house (i.e. sub-tribe) of Quraish but had a kinship to the Prophet (ﷺ) and so the above Versewas revealed in this connection, and its interpretation is: 'O Quraish! You should keep good relationbetween me (i.e. Muhammad) and you."
