Intercessors Worshipped
Their gods, whom they invoked besides Allah, did nothing to help them when your Lord’s command came. Instead, they only increased their ruin.
7:197They on whom ye call beside Him have no power to help you, nor can they help you, nor can they help themselves.
11:101We wronged them not, but they did wrong themselves; and their gods on whom they call beside Allah availed them naught when came thy Lord's command; they added to them naught save ruin.
21:43Or have they gods who can shield them from Us? They cannot help themselves nor can they be defended from Us.
