[Lit., "Produce your evidence" - i.e., for the possibility of anyone or anything having a share in God's divinity.] And so they will come to understand that all truth is God's [alone]; [I.e., that He is the Ultimate Reality, and that whatever is or could be is an outcome of His will alone.] and all their false imagery will have forsaken them. [For the meaning of the phrase ma kanu yaftarun (lit., "all that they were wont to invent" - rendered by me here as well as in 6:24,7:53, 10:30, 11:21 and 16:87 as "all their false imagery"); see also note on 6:22. A specific instance of such "false imagery" the futility of man's relying on his own wealth and worldly power - is illustrated in the immediately following legend of Qarun (see next note).] |
