This parable is so in sync with the preterist intepretation of Revelation: the husband man are the sanhedrin left in charge of God's Kingdom on earth (the vineyard/Jerusalem- Temple) the servants they kill are the old testament prophets. The son is Jesus. This is where the Book of Revelation kicks in- the seals, the trumpets, the bowls, all pull from OT imagery to prophesy the 70Ad destruction of Jerusalem and the temple by the Romans. The owner coming and casting out the wicked husband men is God's wrath and Judgement on Jerusalem. The new husband men he replaces them with are the new priesthood of the new covenant with The Church. When you read Revelation in light of the direct references to both the Old Testament and Jesus' Olivette discourse in Matthew 24 (foretelling the destruction of the temple) with the accounts of the Jewish war by Josephus.... it gets mind blowing!
This parable is just the confirmation of prophet Muhammad pbuh. So yeah let's explain ? Full parable : 33 Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country: 34 And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it. 35 And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another. 36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise. 37 But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. 38 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance. 39 And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. 40 When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen? 41 They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons. 42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes? 43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. 44 And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder. 45 And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them. 46 But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet. - Matthew 21:33-46 (King James Version). The commentry : To understand it better u have to see it as follows, the landowner as a metaphor for God, the vineyard as a metaphor for God's Law, the wall around it refers to that which God prohibited in the Law, the wine-press is a metaphor for the pleasures that are permitted in the Law. The husbandmen who rented the vineyard refers to the Jews. The servants who were sent repeatedly to the tenants to collect the fruits are God's prophets. The son of the landowner is a metaphor for Jesus, who is considered by Muslims to be one of the highly esteemed prophets. The stone the builders rejected is seen as a metaphor for Muhammad. And the quote here "Anyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; anyone on whom it falls will be crushed" clearly fits the description of Muhammad who triumphed during his life-time over all his enemies and against all odds. The verse, ''Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof" So it is clear the kingdom of God will now be taken from Jews and given to a new nation altogether. And that nation was Islam. They didn't kill their prophet rather they accepted him and hence did bring forth the fruits. Hence prophecy of Jesus was fulfilled. Concerning the following verse, "But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet". U will be astonished to find out they Jews were waiting for prophet muhammad pbuh in city of medina to do away with him like they had done with all servants before, that is to kill him. But here they failed and were defeated rather he was already taken prophet by multitude of people and hence he triumphed. And hence these wicked tenants were defeated finally and Gods promise came true. And the following verse, "Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?" Well there is a narration from prophet Muhammad pbuh himself that corroborates this, Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle said, "My similitude in comparison with the other prophets before me, is that of a man who has built a house nicely and beautifully, except for a place of one brick in a corner. The people go about it and wonder at its beauty, but say: 'Would that this brick be put in its place!' So I am that brick, and I am the Seal of the Prophets." - Sahih al-Bukhari, Book of Virtues and Merits of the Prophet and his Companions, Chapter: The Seal of all the Prophets, Hadith number: 44
Acts 4:8-12: [For context this is when Peter healed the crippled beggar in front of the temple in the name of Jesus and was put in jail, this is him talking to the council] Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, ‘Rulers of the people and elders, if we are questioned today because of a good deed done to someone who was sick and are asked how this man has been healed, let it be known to all of you, and to all the people of Israel, that this man is standing before you in good health by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead. This Jesus is “the stone that was rejected by you, the builders; it has become the cornerstone.” There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among mortals by which we must be saved.’ Jesus is the stone.

This parable is just the confirmation of prophet Muhammad pbuh.
So yeah let's explain ?
Full parable :
33 Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:
34 And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.
35 And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.
37 But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.
38 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.
39 And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.
40 When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
41 They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
44 And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
45 And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
46 But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet. - Matthew 21:33-46 (King James Version).
