[Machine] When this verse was revealed to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, "And warn, [O Muhammad], your closest kindred. And lower your wing to those who follow you of the believers" [Surah Ash-Shuara 215], the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "I knew that if I started with it, some of my people would have disliked it. So, I remained silent about it. Then, Jibreel (Gabriel) ﷺ came to me and said, 'O Muhammad, if you do not do what your Lord has commanded you, your Lord will punish you.' Then he mentioned a story about their gathering and his warning to them."  

البيهقي:١٧٧٢٦وأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ ثنا يُونُسُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ فَحَدَّثَنِي مَنْ سَمِعَ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ قَالَ

لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ {وَأَنْذِرْ عَشِيرَتَكَ الْأَقْرَبِينَ وَاخْفِضْ جَنَاحَكَ لِمَنِ اتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ} [الشعراء 215] قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَرَفْتُ أَنِّي إِنْ بَادَأْتُ بِهَا قَوْمِي رَأَيْتُ مِنْهُمْ مَا أَكْرَهُ فَصَمَتُّ عَلَيْهَا فَجَاءَنِي جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنَّكَ إِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلْ مَا أَمَرَكَ بِهِ رَبُّكَ عَذَّبَكَ رَبُّكَ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ قِصَّةً فِي جَمْعِهِمْ وَإِنْذَارِهِ إِيَّاهُمْ
