He said, "O my people, is my family more respected for power by you than Allah ? But you put Him behind your backs [in neglect]. Indeed, my Lord is encompassing of what you do.

Tafsir of "Ibn Kathir" (English)

قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ أَرَهْطِي أَعَزُّ عَلَيْكُم مِّنَ اللّهِHe said:"O my people! Is then my family of more weight with you than Allah!" He says:You would leave me alone out of respect for my people but not out of respect for the greatness of the Lord, the Most Blessed and Exalted. Does not your awe of Allah prevent you from harming His Prophet! Indeed you have placed the fear of Allah,وَاتَّخَذْتُمُوهُAnd you have cast Him awayوَرَاءكُمْ ظِهْرِيًّاbehind your backs.This means that you have thrown it behind you. You do not obey it, nor do you respect it.إِنَّ رَبِّي بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ مُحِيطٌVerily, my Lord is surrounding all that you do.This means that He knows all of your actions and He will reward you according to them
