Worship of any other than Allah

Chapter “SABAA’” - (Saba) - 34

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.

 (I seek refuge in Allaah from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

 وَيَوْمَ يَحْشُرُهُمْ جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ يَقُولُ لِلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ أَهَٰٓؤُلَآءِ إِيَّاكُمْ كَانُوا۟ يَعْبُدُونَ 40

قَالُوا۟ سُبْحَٰنَكَ أَنتَ وَلِيُّنَا مِن دُونِهِم بَلْ كَانُوا۟ يَعْبُدُونَ ٱلْجِنَّ أَكْثَرُهُم بِهِم مُّؤْمِنُونَ 41  

                                       

40.  And on the Day when He will gather them all together, He will say unto the angels: Did these worship you? 41.  They will say: Be Thou glorified. Thou (Alone) art our Guardian, not them! Nay, but they worshipped the Jinn; most of them were believers in them.

40.  Wa  Yawma  Yah-shuru-hum  jamii-‘an  summa  Yaquulu  lilmalaaa-‘ikati  ‘a-haaa-‘ulaaa-‘i  ‘iyyaakum  kaanuu  ya’-buduun. 41.  Qaaluu  Subhaanaka  ‘Anta  Waliyyunaa  min-  duunihim.  Bal  kaanuu  ya’-buduunal-Jinn. ‘Aksaruhum-  bihim- mu’-minuun.

Commentary

The Angels (peace be upon them) are such pure Spirits; to whom transparent bright (Nooraanii) bodies have been given. They perform every work by the Command of Allaah Almighty and are helpful in the betterment of the mankind. Besides them, there are some evil spirits; to whom light blazed (Naarii) bodies have been provided. They try to ruin the mankind. They are from the creature of the Jinn. And the most wicked spirit from them is Satan.

Naturally the mankind is aware of their existence. The nature of the mankind desires that he should incline only to Allaah Almighty, so that He guard him and save from the deceit of Satan. As soon as he becomes careless from Allaah Almighty, Satan succeeds in deceiving the mankind. He misled the human beings that the Angels (peace be upon them) were daughters of Allaah Almighty so they should adore the Angels to please Him. They fabricated their idols and began to adore them. In this verse, it has been warned: You should not consider that We do not know your such wrong act.  

It is commanded: Allaah Almighty will ask from the Angels on the Day of Resurrection: Did you say to these disbelievers that they should adore you? Had you become their adored? The Angels (peace be upon them) will request: O Allaah, Free from all defects and Our Exalted Lord! We have no regard for them. We obey only Your Command. The actual matter is that they were worshippers of Satan. He used to excite them for our adoration and for drawing them back from You. Sometimes they used to make idols of Your righteous slaves and adore them, or save them; they used to bow before other apparent things and have faith in them that those were suppliers of their any want. And most of them were such people who believed that those were useful for them in all matters. They did not use to worship us; but Satan used to cause to adore himself from them in our names.
