Commentary
Those people
who ascribe plurality to God Almighty, do neither meditate and nor think. They
make them associates with Allah Almighty which have life, as well as, sometimes
they begin to consider the lifeless idols as partners and share-holders of Him
too. Such people are more culpable.
They have been
admonished in this verse. It is commanded: These, which you consider; the
inanimate things and the idols; invented by your own hands; that they are
“suppliers of your wants”, they are as much unable that they cannot hear your
voice, although; you make their eyes, ears and nose etc., but while they have
not ability to see and hear, then what is advantage of their invention? Whether
you call them or be quiet; without any kind of difference, both conditions are
the same for you.
After that, a
common rule has been described in which, all things like those having life,
lifeless, idols, pictures and statues etc. have been included. God Almighty
commands: Every that thing to which you will call save Allah Almighty; will be
a creature and for this reason; that will be obedient to its creator. Every
kind of creature is powerless and incapable before God Almighty like you.
Moreover, some things are more helpless than you. Choosing them as own
worshiped and having faith that they can give or snatch anything, is extremely
ignorance. Call them and look; if you are true in considering them proficient.
Now; if they have really any power, they should help you after hearing your
call and come immediately for redress of your grievance, whereas, there is “No
reply” from their side.
Once, the human being had been over taken
by misunderstanding as much that he considered that everything is in the power
of idols like trouble, ease, putting in calamity, relieving and producing foods
etc. Ancient nations threatened the Prophets and Messengers (peace be upon
Them) of their times verily that if They would not give up preaching; then
these idols would involve them in any big difficulty. Even that the idolaters
of Makkah threatened Muhammad, the last Messenger of Allah
Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) from the wrath of
idols. Moreover, even till today, such ignorant people exist who fear idols and
consider that they give everything.
