English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ra
Do you ascribe to God one who is reared among ornaments, and who is not clear in disputation?
English - Five Volume Translation
Do you assign to God one who is reared among ornaments, and who is not clear in disputation?[3653]
Commentary:
The reference in the verse may also be to the idols which were bedecked and bejewelled with ornaments. The verse administers a subtle rebuke to idol worshippers that they worship idols which can neither speak nor answer their prayers nor defend themselves against attacks made upon them. See also 20:90 and 21:64.
