Al-'Ankabut 17

اِنَّمَا تَعْبُدُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللّٰهِ اَوْثَانًا وَتَخْلُقُونَ اِفْكًاۜ اِنَّ الَّذ۪ينَ تَعْبُدُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللّٰهِ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ لَكُمْ رِزْقًا فَابْتَغُوا عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ الرِّزْقَ وَاعْبُدُوهُ وَاشْكُرُوا لَهُۜ اِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ ۝١٧

17—You serve only those you place between yourselves and Allah and make into idols, and you ascribe baseless qualities to them. But know well that those you place between yourselves and Allah and serve cannot give you any provision/even a morsel. So seek all your provision with Allah, serve Him alone, and be grateful for the blessings He gives, for in the end you will be returned to Him.
