Ibn Abbas Commentary

(And they allot to Him) they ascribe to Him (a portion of His bondmen) i.e. the angels! They claimed, i.e. Banu Malih, that the angels were Allah's daughters. (Lo! Man) i.e. the Banu Malih (is verily a mere ingrate) a disbeliever in Allah whose disbelief is quite apparent.

And they assign to Him from among His own servants a part when they say that the angels are God’s daughters — for a child is a part of its parent — even though the angels are like them servants of His exalted be He. Man such as the one who says the above-mentioned words is verily a manifest ingrate one whose ungratefulness is manifest and clear.
