Commentary
And when a person may devote himself to something - while he is not listening - but for his own benefit or to harm his enemy, like fire for example, and the focus of the state of the worshiper and the supplicant is primarily to bring about benefit, he said: ﴿Or can they benefit you﴾ meaning: in worship as the least thing you possess benefits you ﴿Or can they harm you﴾ in abandonment.
