Al-Furqaan • EN-TAFSIR-IBN-ABBAS
﴿ إِن كَادَ لَيُضِلُّنَا عَنْ ءَالِهَتِنَا لَوْلَآ أَن صَبَرْنَا عَلَيْهَا ۚ وَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ حِينَ يَرَوْنَ ٱلْعَذَابَ مَنْ أَضَلُّ سَبِيلًا ﴾
“Indeed, he would well-nigh have led us astray from our deities, had we not been [so] steadfastly attached to them!” But in time, when they see the suffering [that awaits them], they will come to know who it was that went farthest astray from the path [of truth]!”
(He would have led us far away from our gods) from the worship of our deities (if we had not been staunch to them) if we had not been staunch in worshipping them. (They will know) this is a threat to them from Allah, (when they behold the doom, who is more astray as to the road) as to Religion and proof.
