Q 31:21

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱتَّبِعُوا۟ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ قَالُوا۟ بَلْ نَتَّبِعُ مَا وَجَدْنَا عَلَيْهِ ءَابَآءَنَآ ۚ أَوَلَوْ كَانَ ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنُ يَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَىٰ عَذَابِ ٱلسَّعِيرِ

Traductions

Et quand on leur dit: «Suivez ce qu'Allah a fait descendre», ils disent: «Nous suivons plutôt ce sur quoi nous avons trouvé nos ancêtres». Est-ce donc même si le Diable les appelait au châtiment de la fournaise!
Muhammad Hamidullah · FR
And when it is said to them, "Follow what Allah has revealed," they say, "Rather, we will follow that upon which we found our fathers." Even if Satan was inviting them to the punishment of the Blaze?

Tafsir

Lorsqu’on dit à ces gens-là « Suivez ce qui a été révélé par Allah à Son Messager », ils répondent: Non, nous imiterons plutôt nos ancêtres qui adoraient nos divinités. Imiteront-ils leurs ancêtres même s’ils ont été invités par Satan au châtiment de la fournaise lorsqu’il les égara en leur suggérant d’adorer des idoles ?

Lire Ibn Kathir (Ibn Kathir (abrégé, en anglais))
See you not that Allah has subjected for you whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is on the earth, and has completed and perfected His graces upon you, apparent and hidden? Yet of mankind is he who disputes about Allah without knowledge or guidance or a Book giving light (20)And when it is said to them: "Follow that which Allah has sent down," they say: "Nay, we shall follow that which we found our fathers (following)." Even if Shaytan invites them to the torment of the Fire (21) Reminder of Blessings Here Allah reminds His creation of the blessings He bestows upon them in this world and the Hereafter. In the heavens He has subjugated for them the stars which give them light during the night and during the day, and He has created clouds, rain, snow and hail, and made the heavens a canopy which covers and protects them. On earth He has created for them stability and rivers, trees, crops and fruits; He has completed and perfected His graces upon them, apparent and hidden, by sending Messengers, revealing Books and removing doubts and excuses. Yet despite all this, not all the people believe, and indeed there are those who dispute concerning Allah, that is, His Tawhid, and His sending the Messengers. Their dispute is without knowledge and they have no sound evidence or valid inherited Book. Allah says: وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ يُجَادِلُ فِي اللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَلَا هُدًى وَلَا كِتَابٍ مُنِيرٍ (And among men is he who disputes about Allah, without knowledge or guidance, or a Book giving light (from Allah).)(22:8) meaning clear and unambiguous. وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ (And when it is said to them) means, to these people who dispute about the Oneness of Allah. اتَّبِعُوا مَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ("Follow that which Allah has sent down,") means, the pure Divine Laws that He has sent down to His Messengers, قَالُوا بَلْ نَتَّبِعُ مَا وَجَدْنَا عَلَيْهِ آبَاءَنَا (they say: "Nay, we shall follow that which we found our fathers (following).") means, they have no other proof except the fact that they are following their forefathers. Allah says: أَوَلَوْ كَانَ آبَاؤُهُمْ لَا يَعْقِلُونَ شَيْئًا وَلَا يَهْتَدُونَ (Even though their fathers did not understand anything nor were they guided)(2:170) meaning, 'what do you think, you who take the forefathers' deeds as proof, that they were misguided and you are following in their footsteps?' Allah says: أَوَلَوْ كَانَ الشَّيْطَانُ يَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَىٰ عَذَابِ السَّعِيرِ (Even if Shaytan invites them to the torment of the Fire?)
