وَإِن تَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَى ٱلْهُدَىٰ لَا يَتَّبِعُوكُمْ ۚ سَوَآءٌ عَلَيْكُمْ أَدَعَوْتُمُوهُمْ أَمْ أَنتُمْ صَٰمِتُونَ

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ تَدْعُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ عِبَادٌ أَمْثَالُكُمْ ۖ فَٱدْعُوهُمْ فَلْيَسْتَجِيبُوا۟ لَكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ

Explained together with ayah 190
أَلَهُمْ أَرْجُلٌۭ يَمْشُونَ بِهَآ ۖ أَمْ لَهُمْ أَيْدٍۢ يَبْطِشُونَ بِهَآ ۖ أَمْ لَهُمْ أَعْيُنٌۭ يُبْصِرُونَ بِهَآ ۖ أَمْ لَهُمْ ءَاذَانٌۭ يَسْمَعُونَ بِهَا ۗ قُلِ ٱدْعُوا۟ شُرَكَآءَكُمْ ثُمَّ كِيدُونِ فَلَا تُنظِرُونِ
Do they have feet by which they walk? Or do they have hands by which they strike? Or do they have eyes by which they see? Or do they have ears by which they hear? Say, [O Muhammad], "Call your 'partners' and then conspire against me and give me no respite.
﴿أَلَهُمۡ﴾: ألهذه الآلهة؟
﴿يَبۡطِشُونَ﴾: يأخذُون بها، فَيدْفَعُون عنكم.
﴿فَلَا تُنظِرُونِ﴾: فلا تُمْهلوني بعد تدبيرِ كَيْدِكم.
إِنَّ وَلِۦِّىَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِى نَزَّلَ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ ۖ وَهُوَ يَتَوَلَّى ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ
Indeed, my protector is Allah, who has sent down the Book; and He is an ally to the righteous.
﴿وَلِـِّۧيَ﴾: مُتَوَلِّي حِفْظي وجميعِ أموري.
﴿ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ﴾: القرآنَ العظيمَ.
وَٱلَّذِينَ تَدْعُونَ مِن دُونِهِۦ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ نَصْرَكُمْ وَلَآ أَنفُسَهُمْ يَنصُرُونَ
And those you call upon besides Him are unable to help you, nor can they help themselves."
Explained together with ayah 196
وَإِن تَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَى ٱلْهُدَىٰ لَا يَسْمَعُوا۟ ۖ وَتَرَىٰهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ إِلَيْكَ وَهُمْ لَا يُبْصِرُونَ
And if you invite them to guidance, they do not hear; and you see them looking at you while they do not see.
Explained together with ayah 196
خُذِ ٱلْعَفْوَ وَأْمُرْ بِٱلْعُرْفِ وَأَعْرِضْ عَنِ ٱلْجَٰهِلِينَ
Take what is given freely, enjoin what is good, and turn away from the ignorant.
﴿خُذِ﴾: اقْبَلْ أنتَ وأمَّتُكَ.
﴿ٱلۡعَفۡوَ﴾: ما تيسَّرَ من أخلاقِ الناسِ وأعمالِهم.
﴿بِٱلۡعُرۡفِ﴾: هو كلُّ ما عُرِفَ حُسْنُه في الشَّرْعِ والعَقْلِ.
وَإِمَّا يَنزَغَنَّكَ مِنَ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنِ نَزْغٌۭ فَٱسْتَعِذْ بِٱللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ
And if an evil suggestion comes to you from Satan, then seek refuge in Allah. Indeed, He is Hearing and Knowing.
﴿يَنزَغَنَّكَ﴾: يُصِيبَنَّك وسْوَسَةٌ.
﴿فَٱسۡتَعِذۡ بِٱللَّهِ﴾: فاستَجِرْ به والَجأْ إليه.
