ٱلشُّعَرَاء : ٧١

  • قَالُواْ They said
  • نَعۡبُدُ We worship
  • أَصۡنَامٗا idols
  • فَنَظَلُّ so we will remain
  • لَهَا to them
  • عَٰكِفِينَ devoted
They said, "We worship idols and remain to them devoted."
They said, 'We worship idols - they reiterate the verb [in the response] in order to supplement it with [the following remark] - and remain cleaving to them', we remain worshipping them all day; they give a longer response to indicate their [misplaced] pride in such [an act].
