[Machine] The man from the Arabs used to worship the stone, so whenever he found a better one, he would take it and throw away the old one. Allah, the Almighty, revealed, "Have you seen the one who has taken his desire as his God?" [Surah Al-Jathiyah 45:23].  

الحاكم:٣٦٨٩حَدَّثَنَا الشَّيْخُ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ أَنْبَأَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ الْمَرْثَدِيُّ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ ثنا أَبُو يُوسُفَ الْقَاضِي يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ثنا مُطَرِّفٌ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ إِيَاسٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

كَانَ الرَّجُلُ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ يَعْبُدُ الْحَجَرَ فَإِذَا وَجَدَ أَحْسَنَ مِنْهُ أَخَذَهُ وَأَلْقَى الْآخَرَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ﷻ {أَفَرَأَيْتَ مَنِ اتَّخَذَ إِلَهَهُ هَوَاهُ} [الجاثية 23]  

«هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحُ الْإِسْنَادِ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ» صحيح
