Another God?
أَمۡ لَهُمۡ إِلَٰهٌ غَيۡرُ ٱللَّهِۚ سُبۡحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشۡرِكُونَ ٤٣
Or have they any god beside Allah? Glorified be Allah from all that they ascribe as partner (unto Him).
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
Or have they a deity other than Allah?
Insight
According to Elmalılı, this means: “Do they think the idols they worship will save them from Allah’s punishment?”
Reflect
Don’t rely on anything other than Allah.
