﴿ وَيَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا يَنفَعُهُمْ وَلَا يَضُرُّهُمْ ۗ وَكَانَ ٱلْكَافِرُ عَلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ ظَهِيرًۭا ﴾

“And yet, some people worship, instead of God, things that can neither benefit them nor harm them: thus, he who denies the truth does indeed turn his back on his Sustainer!”

Yet they) the disbelievers of Mecca (worship instead of Allah that which can neither benefit them) in this world or in the next, if they worshipped and obeyed them (nor hurt them) in this world or in the next, if they were to disobey them and abstain from their worship. (The disbeliever) Abu Jahl (was ever a partisan) rebellious (against his Lord) it is also that this means: he is always a helper, through his disbelief, to the disbelievers against his Lord.
