muslim:2413aZuhayr b. Ḥarb > ʿAbd al-Raḥman > Sufyān > al-Miqdām b. Shurayḥ from his father

This verse was revealed in relation to six persons and I and Ibn Mas'ud were amongst them. The polytheists said to him (the Holy Prophet): Do not keep such persons near you. It was upon this that (this verse was revealed):" Drive not away those who call upon their Lord morning and evening desiring only His pleasure" (vi. 52).  

مسلم:٢٤١٣aحَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنِ الْمِقْدَامِ بْنِ شُرَيْحٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ

عَنْ سَعْدٍ فِيَّ نَزَلَتْ { وَلاَ تَطْرُدِ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُمْ بِالْغَدَاةِ وَالْعَشِيِّ} قَالَ نَزَلَتْ فِي سِتَّةٍ أَنَا وَابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ مِنْهُمْ وَكَانَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ قَالُوا لَهُ تُدْنِي هَؤُلاَءِ  

قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى: {وَلَا تَطْرُدِ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُمْ} [الأنعام: 52]
