Commentary on 26:96
قَالُوا أي جنود إبليس الغاوون لأصنامهم وأوثانهم التي عبدوها تَاللَّهِ إِنْ كُنَّا لَفِي ضَلالٍ مُبِينٍ * إِذْ نُسَوِّيكُمْ بِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ في العبادة والمحبة والخوف والرجاء وندعوكم كما ندعوه فتبين لهم حينئذ ضلالهم وأقروا بعدل الله في عقوبتهم وأنها في محلها وهم لم يسووهم برب العالمين إلا في العبادة لا في الخلق بدليل قولهم بِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ إنهم مقرون أن الله رب العالمين كلهم الذين من جملتهم أصنامهم وأوثانهم

مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ هَلۡ يَنصُرُونَكُمۡ أَوۡ يَنتَصِرُونَ ٩٣
