Tafsir
They that is the Jews and the Christians and those who claim that the angels are the daughters of God say ‘God has taken to Him a son’. God exalted be He says to them Glory be to Him! in affirmation of His transcending having offspring. He is Independent without need of anyone for only he who has need of a child would desire to have one. To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth as possessions creatures and servants. You have no warrant no proof for this that you say. Do you say about God what you do not know? an interrogative meant as a rebuke.

Ibn Abbas Commentary
(They) the disbelievers of Mecca (say: Allah hath taken (unto Him) a son) from the female angels. (Glorified be He!) Allah exonerates Himself from having sons or partners. (He hath no needs!) He has no need for a son or partners. (His is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth) of created beings and marvels. (Ye have no warrant) you have neither scripture nor proof (for this. Tell ye) indeed, you are saying (concerning Allah that which you know not) of lies?
