Ayah 18
Surah Yunus
And they worship other than Allah that which neither harms them nor benefits them, and they say, "These are our intercessors with Allah " Say, "Do you inform Allah of something He does not know in the heavens or on the earth?" Exalted is He and high above what they associate with Him﴿18﴾
Translation
And they worship other than Allah that which neither harms them nor benefits them, and they say, "These are our intercessors with Allah " Say, "Do you inform Allah of something He does not know in the heavens or on the earth?" Exalted is He and high above what they associate with Him
Simplified Tafsir
ويعبد هؤلاء المشركون من دون الله ما لا يضرهم شيئًا، ولا ينفعهم في الدنيا والآخرة، ويقولون: إنما نعبدهم ليشفعوا لنا عند الله، قل لهم -أيها الرسول-: أتخبرون الله تعالى بشيء لا يعلمه مِن أمر هؤلاء الشفعاء في السموات أو في الأرض؟ فإنه لو كان فيهما شفعاء يشفعون لكم عنده لكان أعلم بهم منكم، فالله تعالى منزَّه عما يفعله هؤلاء المشركون من إشراكهم في عبادته ما لا يضر ولا ينفع.
