3497. Narrated Ṭāwūs: Ibn 'Abbās رضي الله عنه recited the Qur'ānic Verse : "...Except to be kind to me for my kinship with you..." (V.42:23) Sa'īd bin Jubair said, "(The Verse implies) the kinship of Muḥammad ﷺ." Ibn 'Abbās said, "There was not a single house (i.e., sub-tribe) of Quraish but had a kinship with the Prophet ﷺ; and so the above Verse was revealed in this connection, and its interpretation is: 'O Quraish! You should keep good relations between me (i.e., Muḥammad ﷺ) and you.'"
