Al-Hajj • EN-TAFSIR-IBN-ABBAS
﴿ وَيَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَمْ يُنَزِّلْ بِهِۦ سُلْطَٰنًۭا وَمَا لَيْسَ لَهُم بِهِۦ عِلْمٌۭ ۗ وَمَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ مِن نَّصِيرٍۢ ﴾
“And yet they [who claim to believe in Him often] worship [other beings or forces] beside God - something for which He has never bestoweed any warrant from on high, and [of the reality] whereof they cannot have any knowledge: and such evildoers shall have none to succour them [on Judgment Day].”
(And they) the disbelievers of Mecca (worship instead of Allah that for which no warrant has been revealed unto them) without any Scripture or pretext, (and that whereof they have no knowledge) proof or clarification. (For evil-doers) for idolaters (there is no helper) to save them from Allah's chastisement.
