37. And whomever Allah guides, there is no one to mislead him. Is Allah not Mighty and capable of retribution [53]?
[53]
How is Allah Insulted?
These polytheists are greatly concerned about the honor of their respective deities and elders, and for this purpose, they fabricate and spread many tales and legends among the people. Yet, it never occurs to them that above all these is such a Mighty Being whom, under the guise of elevating the honor of their deities, they are gravely insulting. And that Being is fully capable of taking complete revenge on them, and they do not even grasp this simple fact that, in comparison to the Almighty Allah, what reality do their deities even possess? They wish to intimidate the worshiper of Allah alone with such empty threats.
