Do they idolize those who create nothing, and are themselves created?
And can neither help them, nor help their own selves?
And if you invite them to guidance, they will not follow you. It is the same for you, whether you invite them, or remain silent.
Those you call upon besides Allah are servants like you. So call upon them, and let them answer you, if you are truthful.
Do they have feet with which they walk? Or do they have hands with which they strike? Or do they have eyes with which they see? Or do they have ears with which they hear? Say, "Call upon your partners, then plot against me, and do not wait."
"My Master is Allah, He Who sent down the Book, and He takes care of the righteous."
Those you call upon besides Him cannot help you, nor can they help themselves.
And if you call them to guidance, they will not hear. And you see them looking at you, yet they do not see.
Be tolerant, and command decency, and avoid the ignorant.
And when a suggestion from Satan assails you, take refuge with Allah. He is Hearing and Knowing.
