حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامٌ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ وَقَالَ عَطَاءٌ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ
صَارَتِ الأَوْثَانُ الَّتِي كَانَتْ فِي قَوْمِ نُوحٍ فِي الْعَرَبِ بَعْدُ؛ أَمَّا (وُدٌّ) كَانَتْ لِكَلْبٍ بِدَوْمَةِ الْجَنْدَلِ؛ وَأَمَّا (سُوَاعٌ) كَانَتْ لِهُذَيْلٍ؛ وَأَمَّا (يَغُوثُ) فَكَانَتْ لِمُرَادٍ ثُمَّ لِبَنِي غُطَيْفٍ بِالْجُرُفِ عِنْدَ سَبَا؛ وَأَمَّا (يَعُوقُ) فَكَانَتْ لِهَمْدَانَ؛ وَأَمَّا (نَسْرٌ) فَكَانَتْ لِحِمْيَرَ لآلِ ذِي الْكَلاَعِ۔۔۔ أَسْمَاءُ رِجَالٍ صَالِحِينَ مِنْ قَوْمِ نُوحٍ؛ فَلَمَّا هَلَكُوا أَوْحَى الشَّيْطَانُ إِلَى قَوْمِهِمْ أَنِ انْصِبُوا إِلَى مَجَالِسِهِمُ الَّتِي كَانُوا يَجْلِسُونَ أَنْصَابًا وَسَمُّوهَا بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ فَفَعَلُوا فَلَمْ تُعْبَدْ حَتَّى إِذَا هَلَكَ أُولَئِكَ وَتَنَسَّخَ الْعِلْمُ عُبِدَتْ

All the idols which were worshiped by the people of Noah were worshiped by the Arabs later on. As for the idol Wadd, it was worshiped by the tribe of Kalb at Daumat-al-Jandal; Suwaʿ was the idol of (the tribe of) Hudhail; Yaghouth was worshiped by (the tribe of) Murad and then by Bani Ghutaif at Al-Jurf near Saba; Yaʿuq was the idol of Hamdan, and Nasr was the idol of Himyar, the branch of Dhi-al-Kalaʿ. The names (of the idols) formerly belonged to some pious men of the people of Noah, and when they died Satan inspired their people to (prepare and place idols at the places where they used to sit, and to call those idols by their names. The people did so, but the idols were not worshiped till those people (who initiated them) had died and the origin of the idols had become obscure, whereupon people began worshiping them.
