"Say: Do you order me to worship other than Allah, O you ignorant ones?" meaning: The polytheists called upon him to worship idols.
Muhammad said: The discussion regarding the variant readings of "ta'murunni" (do you order me) has already passed in Surah Al-An'am.
﴿قُلْ أَفَغَيْرَ اللَّهِ تَأْمُرُونِي أَعْبُدُ أَيهَا الجاهلون﴾ يَعْنِي: الْمُشْركين دَعَوْهُ إِلَى عبَادَة الْأَوْثَان.
قَالَ محمدٌ: قد مضى فِي سُورَة الْأَنْعَام ذكر الِاخْتِلَاف فِي قِرَاءَة ﴿تأمروني﴾.
