Ibn Kathir (Abridged)

The Idols of the Polytheists will deny Their Worship

Allah, the Exalted, informs about the disbelievers who associate partners with their Lord, that they have taken gods besides Allah, so that these gods may be a source of honor and might for them. They think that these gods give them power and make

Sura 19, Ukurasa 311, Juzuu 16

66. Man is prone to say: "Shall I be raised to life after I die?" 67. Does man not remember that We created him before when he was nothing? 68. By your Lord, We will surely muster them and the devils together. Then We will surely bring them all, on their knees, around Hell, 69. and then We will draw aside from each party those who were most rebellious against the Most Compassionate Lord, 70. and then We shall know well all those most worthy to be cast in Hell. 71. There is not one of you but shall pass by Hell. This is a decree which your Lord will fulfil. 72. Then We shall deliver those that feared Allah and leave the wrong-doers there on their knees. 73. When Our clear revelations are recited to those who deny the Truth they are wont to say to those who have faith: "Which of the two groups has a better status and whose assemblies are grander?" 74. How numerous are the peoples We destroyed before them - those that were more resourceful and grander in outward appearance! 75. Say: "The Most Compassionate Lord grants respite to those who stray into error, until they behold what they had been threatened with, either God's chastisement (in the world) or the Hour (of Resurrection)" - then they fully know whose station is worse, and who is weaker in hosts! 76. (On the contrary), Allah increases in guidance those who follow the Right Way. Lasting acts of righteousness are better in the sight of your Lord as reward and conducive to a better end. 77. Have you seen him who rejected Our signs and said: "Surely I shall continue to be favoured with riches and children." 78. Has he obtained knowledge of the Unseen, or has he taken a covenant with the Most Compassionate Lord? 79. By no means! We shall write down all what he says; and We shall greatly prolong his chastisement, 80. and We shall inherit all the resources and hosts of which he boasts, and he will come to Us all alone. 81. They have taken other gods instead of Allah that they may be a source of strength for them. 82. By no means! They shall soon deny their worship and shall become their adversaries instead.
