وَاتَّخَذُواْ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ ءَالِهَةً لَّعَلَّهُمْ يُنصَرُونَ - لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُونَ نَصْرَهُمْ وَهُمْ لَهُمْ جُندٌ مٌّحْضَرُونَ - فَلاَ يَحْزُنكَ قَوْلُهُمْ إِنَّا نَعْلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعْلِنُونَ
(74. And they have taken besides Allah, gods, hoping that they might be helped.)
(75. They cannot help them, but they will be brought forward as a troop (against those who worshipped them).)
(76. So, let not their speech then grieve you. Verily, We know what they conceal and what they reveal.)
Allah denounces the idolators for taking the idols as gods alongside Allah, hoping that those gods will help them and provide for them and bring them closer to Allah. Allah says:
لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُونَ نَصْرَهُمْ
(They cannot help them,) meaning, those gods cannot help their worshippers; they are too weak, too insignificant and too powerless. Rather they cannot even help themselves or take revenge on those who want to harm them, because they are inanimate and can neither hear nor comprehend. Allah's saying:
وَهُمْ لَهُمْ جُندٌ مٌّحْضَرُونَ
(but they will be brought forward as a troop.) means, at the time of Reckoning according to the view of Mujahid. This means that those idols will be gathered together and will be present when their worshippers are brought to account, as this will add to their grief and will be more effective in establishing proof against them. Qatadah said:
لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُونَ نَصْرَهُمْ
(They cannot help them,) means the gods.
وَهُمْ لَهُمْ جُندٌ مٌّحْضَرُونَ
(but they will be brought forward as a troop.) "The idolators used to get angry for the sake of their gods in this world, but they could not do them any benefit or protect them from any harm, for they were merely idols.'' This was also the view of Al-Hasan Al-Basri. This is a good opinion, and was the view favored by Ibn Jarir, may Allah have mercy on him.
فَلاَ يَحْزُنكَ قَوْلُهُمْ
(So, let not their speech then grieve you.) means, `their denying you and their disbelief in Allah.'
إِنَّا نَعْلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعْلِنُونَ
(Verily, We know what they conceal and what they reveal.) means, `We know everything about them, and We will punish them for their false claims and deal with them accordingly on the Day when none of their deeds, great or small, major or minor, will be overlooked, and every deed they did throughout their worldly lives will be laid open for examination.'

Demikian pula mereka tidak dapat menolong diri mereka sendiri. Jika diri mereka saja, tidak sanggup mereka tolong lalu bagaimana menolong orang lain. Padahal menolong itu ada dua syarat: (1) Kemampuan dan kesanggupan, (2) Kemauan. Jika kemampuan tidak ada, maka menafikan kedua-duanya (kemampuan dan kemauan).
Bisa juga diartikan, padahal mereka (berhala-berhala) itu dan para penyembahnya adalah orang-orang yang sama-sama disiapkan dimasukkan ke dalam neraka. Di dalam neraka itu antara penyembah dengan sesembahan yang disembahnya akan saling berlepas diri. Oleh karena itu, mengapa mereka tidak berlepas diri sewaktu di dunia dari menyembah sesembahan-sesembahan itu, dan hanya menyembah Allah saja yang di Tangan-Nya segala kekuasaan, dan Dia yang berkuasa memberikan manfaat dan menimpakan madharrat, yang berkuasa memberi dan menahan?
