Usually the people who deny this (like the Sunnah website itself) use the following Hadith, however, Do you not see that they have purposely stopped quoting the Qur'an & leave it outside of quotes to make it look like Aïsha (رضي الله عنها) is explaining what the verse means?

When we pray to Allah does it have more of a chance of being answered if we mention individuals who were close to Allah when they were alive?
