Surah Al-Qasas · سُوْرَةُ الْقَصَصِ · Juz 20
Q 28:74
وَيَوْمَ يُنَادِيهِمْ فَيَقُولُ أَيْنَ شُرَكَآءِىَ ٱلَّذِينَ كُنتُمْ تَزْعُمُونَ
Translations
And [warn of] the Day He will call them and say, "Where are my 'partners' which you used to claim?"Et le jour où Il les appellera, Il dira: «Où sont ceux que vous prétendiez être Mes associés?»Tafsir
On the day their Lord will call them saying: “Where are My partners you used to worship besides Me and claim they are My partners?”
Read Ibn Kathir (Ibn Kathir (abridged, English))
And the Day when He will call to them, and will say: "Where are My (so-called) partners, whom you used to assert? (74)And We shall take out from every nation a witness, and We shall say: "Bring your proof." Then they shall know that the truth is with Allah, and the lies which they invented will disappear from them (75)
Rebuking the Idolators
This is another call by way of rebuke for those who worshipped other gods besides Allah. The Lord, may He be exalted, will call to them before all the witnesses, and will say:
أَيْنَ شُرَكَائِيَ الَّذِينَ كُنْتُمْ تَزْعُمُونَ
(Where are My (so-called) partners, whom you used to assert?) meaning, in this world.
وَنَزَعْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ شَهِيدًا
(And We shall take out from every nation a witness,) Mujahid said, "This means a Messenger."
فَقُلْنَا هَاتُوا بُرْهَانَكُمْ
(and We shall say: "Bring your proof.") meaning, 'of the truth of your claim that Allah had any partners.'
فَعَلِمُوا أَنَّ الْحَقَّ لِلَّهِ
(Then they shall know that the truth is with Allah,) meaning, that there is no god besides Him. Then they will not speak and they will not be able to find any answer.
وَضَلَّ عَنْهُمْ مَا كَانُوا يَفْتَرُونَ
(and the lies which they invented will disappear from them.) they will vanish and will be of no benefit to them.
