Tafsir Ibn Abbas: An-Nahl, Ayah 56
وَيَجْعَلُونَ لِمَا لَا يَعْلَمُونَ نَصِيبًۭا مِّمَّا رَزَقْنَٰهُمْ ۗ تَٱللَّهِ لَتُسْـَٔلُنَّ عَمَّا كُنتُمْ تَفْتَرُونَ
And they assign to what they do not know a portion of that which We have provided them. By Allah, you will surely be questioned about what you used to invent.

And they that is the idolaters assign to what they do not know that they cause harm and cannot benefit them — namely the idols — a portion of that which We have provided them with of crops and cattle saying that ‘this is for God and this is for our partners’. By God you will indeed be questioned a questioning of rebuke; there is a shift herein from the third to the second person about what you used to fabricate against God such as claiming that He commanded you to do this.
Ibn Abbas Commentary
(And they assign a portion) a share for men to the exclusion of women (of that which We have given them) of cattle and crops (unto what they know not) and say: Allah commanded us to do so. (By Allah! but ye will indeed be asked) on the Day of Judgement (concerning (all) that ye used to invent) to lie about Allah.
