Commentary
And those who have taken besides Him allies have made for Him partners and equals. Allah is All-Holding over them, a Watcher over their conditions and actions; nothing escapes Him from them, and He will hold them accountable for it and punish them. There is no watcher over them except Him alone. And you, O Muhammad, are not appointed over them, nor is the matter entrusted to you, nor are you to compel them to believe. You are only a warner.
