This verse asks this question: did we appoint any deities other than (Allah) most gracious, to be worshipped?

Did Allah ever appoint, besides other than Him, gods to be worshipped?

This was on the night when Muhammad was taken up to heaven and he led in prayer 70 prophets, among whom were Abraham, Moses and Jesus.

Allah commanded His Prophet Muhammad, saying:

Ask them (whom We sent before thee) O Muhammad:

Did We ever appoint gods to be worshipped beside the Beneficent?

Did We command that any other deity beside the Beneficent be worshipped?

It is also said that this means:

Ask those unto whom We sent the messengers before you, i.e. the people of Book, did We appoint any other deities beside the Beneficent to be worshipped?

And it is also said that this means:

Ask them, did the messengers bring anything other than the profession of Allah's divine Oneness;

The Prophet did not have to ask because he was certain that Allah did not appoint any other deities to be worshipped beside Him.
