* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn


{ قُلْ أَفَغَيْرَ ٱللَّهِ تَأْمُرُونِّيۤ أَعْبُدُ أَيُّهَا ٱلْجَاهِلُونَ }

Say ‘Is it something other than God that you bid me to worship O you who are ignorant?’ ghayra is in the accusative because of the verb a‘budu ‘I worship’ which itself is operated by ta’murūnī ‘you bid me’ read with one nūn on the basis of an implicit an; it ta’murūnī may also be read with two nūns assimilated ta’murūnnī or separated ta’murūnanī.
