( ويجعلون لما لا يعلمون ) له حقا ، أي الأصنام ، ( نصيبا مما رزقناهم ) من الأموال ، وهو ما جعلوا للأوثان من حروثهم وأنعامهم ، فقالوا : هذا لله بزعمهم ، وهذا لشركائنا .
ثم رجع من الخبر إلى الخطاب فقال : ( تالله لتسألن ) يوم القيامة ، ( عما كنتم تفترون ) في الدنيا .
The idolaters allocate to their idols, which do not know anything - as they are lifeless objects that can neither benefit nor harm - a portion of the wealth that We provided for them, as a means of seeking closeness to those idols. By Allah, you - O idolaters - will be questioned on the Day of Judgement about your assertions that these idols are gods and that they are entitled to a portion of your wealth.
