Idolators

What you call them to is burdensome for the idolaters.

42:13He hath ordained for you that religion which He commended unto Noah, and that which We inspire in thee (Muhammad), and that which We commended unto Abraham and Moses and Jesus, saying: Establish the religion, and be not divided therein. Dreadful for the idolaters is that unto which thou callest them. Allah chooseth for Himself whom He will, and guideth unto Himself him who turneth (toward Him).

They assign to Allah what they dislike for themselves, and their tongues utter lies: “The best belongs to us.”

16:62And they assign unto Allah that which they (themselves) dislike, and their tongues expound the lie that the better portion will be theirs. Assuredly theirs will be the Fire, and they will be abandoned.

Let them deny what We have given them and enjoy themselves for a while, they will soon know.

29:66That they may disbelieve in that which We have given them, and that they may take their ease. But they will come to know.

30:34So as to disbelieve in that which We have given them. (Unto such it is said): Enjoy yourselves awhile, but ye will come to know.

Yet they worship besides Allah what He has sent no authority for, and what they have no knowledge of. The wrongdoers will have no helper.

22:71And they worship instead of Allah that for which He hath sent down no warrant, and that whereof they have no knowledge. For evil-doers there is no helper.

Why then did those they took as gods besides Allah not help them? Instead, they vanished from them. That was their lie and what they used to fabricate.

46:28Then why did those whom they had chosen for gods as a way of approach (unto Allah) not help them? Nay, but they did fail them utterly. And (all) that was their lie, and what they used to invent.
