 there are people who set up equals and rivals with allah and adore them with the adoration due to allah. whereas the believers adore allah most ardently. would that these transgressors could realize now what they will realize when they will see the chastisement before them that power and authority wholly belong to allah and that allah is severe in punishment!
ومن الناس من يتخذ من دون الله أندادا يحبونهم كحب الله والذين آمنوا أشد حبا لله ولو يرى الذين ظلموا إذ يرون العذاب أن القوة لله جميعا وأن الله شديد العذاب
