81وَٱتَّخَذُوا۟ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ ءَالِهَةً لِّيَكُونُوا۟ لَهُمْ عِزًّا
82كَلَّا ۚ سَيَكْفُرُونَ بِعِبَادَتِهِمْ وَيَكُونُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ ضِدًّا
[81-82] These people have set up other gods than Allah so that they may become their supporters.49 But they will have no supporter; all of them will not only disown their worship50 but also become their opponents.
49The Arabic word 'Izzan (from 'Izat) implies a powerful and strong person whom nobody may dare do any harm; here it means a person's having such a strong supporter that no enemy or opponent of his may even cherish an evil intention against him.
50That is, they will say, "We never asked them to worship us nor were we aware that these foolish people were worshiping us."
