And when the son of Mary was presented as an example, immediately (43:57)

﴿۞ وَلَمَّا ضُرِبَ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ مَثَلًا إِذَا قَوْمُكَ مِنْهُ يَصِدُّونَ﴾
[ الزخرف: 57]

43:57 And when the son of Mary was presented as an example, immediately your people laughed aloud.

When the idolaters thought that the Jesus the Christians worshipped was included in the statement of Allah the Exalted: {Indeed, you [ disbelievers ] and what you worship other than Allah are the firewood of Hell.
You will be coming to [ enter ] it}, and Allah had prohibited worshipping him just like He had prohibited the worship of idols, your people, O Messenger, began persisting in argument, saying, “We are pleased that our idols are of the same status as Jesus.
” So Allah revealed, refuting them, {Indeed, those for whom the best [ reward ] has preceded from Me - they are from it far removed}.

And when the son of Maryam (Mary) is quoted as an example [i.e. 'Iesa (Jesus) is worshipped like their idols), behold! Your people cry aloud (laugh out at the example).
