Az-Zukhruf 15

Ayah 15 of 89 · Meccan

وَجَعَلُواْ لَهُۥ مِنۡ عِبَادِهِۦ جُزۡءًاۚ إِنَّ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ لَكَفُورٞ مُّبِينٌ ١٥

But they have attributed to Him from His servants a portion.1 Indeed, man is clearly ungrateful.

Translation: Saheeh International (English)

1 By claiming that He (subḥānahu wa taʿālā) has a son or daughters, as it is said that a child is part of his parent. This concept is totally incompatible with Allāh's unity and exclusiveness.

Tafsir

The idolaters claim that some of the creations are the offspring of the Creator (may He be glorified), when they said, “The angels are the daughters of Allah”. Indeed, the human who makes these kind of statements is very ungrateful and deviant.
