Commentary:

After giving a brief history of some of the Prophets in the preceding verses, the Surah proceeds in the present verse to deal with a basic principle of all religions—the repudiation and condemnation of idolatry. Among different peoples Shirk(ascribing Divine powers and attributes to beings and things other than God) has taken different forms. Some people worship forces of nature, others idols of stone, and yet others ascribe Divine powers to angels, believing them to be God’s daughters. It is this form of idolatry which was prevalent among the Arabs and in the Holy Prophet’s time and which has been condemned here.
