say instead of god shall we call upon that which can neither benefit us nor harm us? are we to turn upon our heels after god has guided us like one who beguiled by devils in the land wanders bewildered his companions calling him to the right path saying come to us? say gods guidance is the only guidance. we are commanded to surrender ourselves to the lord of the universe say our prayers regularly and to fear god. he it is to whom you will be gathered.
قل أندعو من دون الله ما لا ينفعنا ولا يضرنا ونرد على أعقابنا بعد إذ هدانا الله كالذي استهوته الشياطين في الأرض حيران له أصحاب يدعونه إلى الهدى ائتنا قل إن هدى الله هو الهدى وأمرنا لنسلم لرب العالمين وأن أقيموا الصلاة واتقوه وهو الذي إليه تحشرون
