But God exalted be He says Without any doubt — verily — theirs shall be the Fire and they shall be abandoned therein or it mufratūn means that they shall be foremost in entering it a variant reading for mufratūn has mufritūn meaning that ‘they transgress the bounds’.

Ibn Abbas Commentary
(And they assign unto Allah that which they (themselves) dislike) they say that Allah has daughters when they themselves do not like to have daughters, (and their tongues expound the lie) they speak lies (that the better portion will be theirs) i.e. sons will be theirs; it is also said that this means: Paradise will be theirs; and it is also said that this means: how could Paradise be theirs? (Assuredly theirs will be the Fire, and they will be abandoned) it is also said that this means: they are excessive people both in their words and deeds.
