English Translation
41Or do they have partners, whom they associate with Allah, who will force Allah to do all this? If they are sincere in their claims, let them bring their partners, and let us see.
Explanatory translation
41Or do they have someone besides Allah to protect them? Or do they have gods who share power and authority with Allah? Or do they have helpers who send them revelation whenever they wish and who will back up and confirm their lies? Then, if they are telling the truth, let them show the partners and allies who support them. Let them bring their proofs from the scriptures in which they think these partners hold such powers! Can they be proven right? No! They can never prove their claims, for they are lying. On the Day of Reckoning they will pay for this in the severest way. These are people who place intermediaries between themselves and Allah and believe that those intermediaries will favor them in Allah’s sight.
