وَمَن يُضۡلِلِ ٱللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن وَلِيّٖ مِّنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦۗ وَتَرَى ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ لَمَّا رَأَوُاْ ٱلۡعَذَابَ يَقُولُونَ هَلۡ إِلَىٰ مَرَدّٖ مِّن سَبِيلٖ ٤٤ ﴿44﴾

Commentary
And whoever Allah leads astray, then he has no protector after Him. This saying, 'And whoever Allah leads astray, then he has no protector,' is an interpretation according to the doctrine of the Mu'tazila: that He, the Exalted, does not create evil. And according to the Ahl al-Sunnah, He creates it just as He creates good; thus, leading astray is the creation of misguidance. 'And after Him' means after His leading astray. So, he has no supporter who will take care of him after his being forsaken.
