مَرْيَم : ٨١

  • وَٱتَّخَذُواْ And they have taken
  • مِن besides Allah
  • دُونِ besides Allah
  • ٱللَّهِ besides Allah
  • ءَالِهَةٗ gods
  • لِّيَكُونُواْ that they may be
  • لَهُمۡ for them
  • عِزّٗا an honor
And they have taken besides Allāh [false] deities that they would be for them [a source of] honor.
And they, namely, the disbelievers of Mecca, have taken besides God, graven images [as], [other] gods, for them to worship, that they may be for them a [source of] might, [that they may be] intercessors before God, so that they will not be chastised.
