وَتَفْسِيرُهَا الَّذِي يُوَضِّحُهَا، قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى: ﴿وَإِذْ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوْمِهِ إِنَّنِي بَرَاءٌ مِمَّا تَعْبُدُونَ * إِلَّا الَّذِي فَطَرَنِي فَإِنَّهُ سَيَهْدِينِ * وَجَعَلَهَا كَلِمَةً بَاقِيَةً فِي عَقِبِهِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْجِعُونَ﴾ [سورة الزخرف، الآيات:

Its interpretation, which clarifies it, is the saying of the Almighty: 'And when Abraham said to his father and his people, "Indeed, I am disassociated from that which you worship, except for He who created me, and indeed, He will guide me." And he made it a lasting word among his descendants that they might return' [Surah Az-Zukhruf, verses 26-28].

وَقَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى: ﴿أَفَرَأَيْتُمُ اللَّاتَ وَالْعُزَّى * وَمَنَاةَ الثَّالِثَةَ الْأُخْرَى * أَلَكُمُ الذَّكَرُ وَلَهُ الْأُنثَى * تِلْكَ إِذًا قِسْمَةٌ ضِيزَى * إِنْ هِيَ إِلَّا أَسْمَاءٌ سَمَّيْتُمُوهَا أَنتُمْ وَآبَاؤُكُم مَّا أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ بِهَا مِن سُلْطَانٍ إِن يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا الظَّنَّ وَمَا تَهْوَى الْأَنفُسُ وَلَقَدْ جَاءَهُم مِّن رَّبِّهِمُ الْهُدَى﴾ [سورة النجم، الآيات:

And the saying of the Almighty: 'Have you considered Al-Lat and Al-Uzza? And Manat, the third, the other one? Is the male for you and the female for Him? That, then, is an unjust division. They are not but [mere] names you have named them - you and your forefathers - for which Allah has sent down no authority. They follow not except assumption and what [their] souls desire, and there has already come to them from their Lord guidance' [Surah An-Najm, verses 19-23].

وَقَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ يُوسُفَ عَلَيْهِ الصَّلَاةُ وَالسَّلَامُ: ﴿مَا تَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِهِ إِلَّا أَسْمَاءً سَمَّيْتُمُوهَا أَنتُمْ وَآبَاؤُكُم مَّا أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ بِهَا مِن سُلْطَانٍ﴾ [سورة يوسف، الآية:

And the saying of the Almighty regarding Joseph, peace and blessings be upon him: 'You worship not besides Him except [mere] names you have named them, you and your forefathers, for which Allah has sent down no authority' [Surah Yusuf, verse 40].
