حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ يَزِيدَ النَّحْوِيِّ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ
فِي قَوْلِهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ﴿إِمَّا يَبْلُغَنَّ عِنْدَكَ الْكِبَرَ أَحَدُهُمَا أَوْ كِلاَهُمَا فَلاَ تَقُلْ لَهُمَا أُفٍّ﴾ ([الإسراء ١٧:٢٣](https://quran.islamunlocked.com/quran:17:23)) إِلَى قَوْلِهِ ﴿كَمَا رَبَّيَانِي صَغِيرًا﴾ ([الإسراء ١٧:٢٤](https://quran.islamunlocked.com/quran:17:24)): فَنَسَخَتْهَا الْآيَةُ فِي بَرَاءَةَ ﴿مَا كَانَ لِلنَّبِيِّ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَنْ يَسْتَغْفِرُوا لِلْمُشْرِكِينَ وَلَوْ كَانُوا أُولِي قُرْبَى مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُمْ أَنَّهُمْ أَصْحَابُ الْجَحِيمِ﴾ ([التوبة ٩:١١٣](https://quran.islamunlocked.com/quran:9:113)).

Regarding the saying ˹of Allah˺ ﷻ, “If one or both of them reach old age in your care, do not say to them, ‘Uff’” ([Isra 17:23](https://quran.islamunlocked.com/quran:17:23)), through His saying, “as they raised me when I was small” ([Isra 17:24](https://quran.islamunlocked.com/quran:17:24): The verse in Baraah abrogated it: “Neither the Prophet nor those who believe may seek forgiveness for the polytheists, even if they are close relatives, after it has become clear to them that they are companions of Hellfire” ([Tawbah 9:113](https://quran.islamunlocked.com/quran:9:113)).
