Tafsir

قوله - عز وجل - : ) ( واتخذوا ) يعني عبدة الأوثان ، ) ( من دونه آلهة ) يعني : الأصنام ، ) ( لا يخلقون شيئا وهم يخلقون ولا يملكون لأنفسهم ضرا ولا نفعا ) أي : دفع ضر ولا جلب نفع ، ( ولا يملكون موتا ولا حياة ) أي : إماتة وإحياء ، ( ولا نشورا ) أي : بعثا بعد الموت .

Instead of Allah, the idolaters adopted deities who cannot create anything small or large, but are themselves created. Verily, Allah created them from non-existence; they are unable to fend off any harm from themselves nor bring themselves any benefit, nor are they able to cause death to any living or give life to any dead, or raise the dead from their graves.
