Transliteration:( Am lahum shurakaaa'u fal ya'too bishurakaaa 'ihim in kaanoo saadiqeen )
"Or, do they have associate gods? If they have associate gods, let them bring them, if they are truthful."
This verse addresses the disbelievers who claim that there are associate gods to Allah, questioning them about these supposed gods. Allah challenges them, asking if they indeed have other deities, then they should bring them forward to prove their claims, if they are truthful.
The verse exposes the fallacy of polytheism, highlighting that those who claim to have associate gods are engaged in infidelity and have no valid proof to back their claims.
The disbelievers know that their claims are false and merely speak out of stubbornness. They are aware of their lies, but continue to promote their misguided beliefs without any real evidence or truth.
The tafsir of Surah Qalam verse 41 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Qalam ayat 34 which provides the complete commentary from verse 34 through 41.
(68:41) Or has something been guaranteed by any of those whom they associate with Allah in His Divinity?” If so, let them bring forth their associates, if they are truthful.[23]
23. That is, the judgment you are passing concerning yourselves has no basis whatever. It is against reason and you cannot show any such thing written in any divine Book either. No one can make the claim that he has made Allah promise some such thing, and you cannot make any of your deities vouch that they would take the responsibility of securing Paradise for you from God. How then have you been involved in such a misunderstanding.
[1731]- i.e., those to whom they attribute divinity other than Allāh or partners from among themselves.
