Transliteration:( Wa a'tazilukum wa maa tad'oona min doonil laahi wa ad'oo Rabbee 'asaaa allaaa akoona bidu'aaa'i Rabbee shaqiyyaa )
And I will distance myself from you and from what you invoke besides Allah [81], and I will invoke my Lord. Perhaps I will not be unsuccessful in invoking my Lord [82].
Hazrat Ibrahim (علیہ السلام) openly distanced himself from idol worship and from those who practice it.
Two lessons:
Hypocrisy is forbidden; one must be clear and open in faith.
Keeping company with disbelievers is forbidden; Ibrahim severed ties with his infidel uncle.
Worshippers of idols are unfortunate, while worshippers of Allah are blessed.
True worship removes misfortune and brings good fortune.
No believer should consider themselves unfortunate, as faith and remembrance of Allah bring continual blessings and favorable destiny.
