Surah Al-An'aam

Say, "Shall we invoke instead of Allah that which neither benefits us nor harms us and be turned back on our heels after Allah has guided us? [We would then be] like one whom the devils enticed [to wander] upon the earth confused, [while] he has companions inviting him to guidance, [calling], 'Come to us.' " Say, "Indeed, the guidance of Allah is the [only] guidance; and we have been commanded to submit to the Lord of the worlds.﴿71

Simplified Tafsir

قل -أيها الرسول- لهؤلاء المشركين: أنعبد من دون الله تعالى أوثانًا لا تنفع ولا تضر؟ ونرجع إلى الكفر بعد هداية الله تعالى لنا إلى الإسلام، فنشبه -في رجوعنا إلى الكفر- مَن فسد عقله باستهواء الشياطين له، فَضَلَّ في الأرض، وله رفقة عقلاء مؤمنون يدعونه إلى الطريق الصحيح الذي هم عليه فيأبى. قل -أيها الرسول- لهؤلاء المشركين: إنَّ هدى الله الذي بعثني به هو الهدى الحق، وأُمِرنا جميعًا لنسلم لله تعالى رب العالمين بعبادته وحده لا شريك له، فهو رب كل شيء ومالكه.
