* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn


{ إِنْ هِيَ إِلاَّ أَسْمَآءٌ سَمَّيْتُمُوهَآ أَنتُمْ وَآبَآؤُكُم مَّآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ بِهَا مِن سُلْطَانٍ إِن يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلاَّ ٱلظَّنَّ وَمَا تَهْوَى ٱلأَنفُسُ وَلَقَدْ جَآءَهُم مِّن رَّبِّهِمُ ٱلْهُدَىٰ }

These that is the mentioned deities are nothing but names which you have named by which you have named you and your fathers idols that you worship. God has not revealed any warrant any proof or evidence for them that is to say for the worship of them. They follow nothing but conjecture in their worship of them and that which ignoble souls desire of that which Satan adorned for them that they may intercede for them before God exalted be He even though guidance has already come to them from their Lord by the tongue of the Prophet s with definitive proof; yet they do not desist from their ways.
