﴿ وَلَئِن سَأَلْتَهُم مَّنْ خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَسَخَّرَ ٱلشَّمْسَ وَٱلْقَمَرَ لَيَقُولُنَّ ٱللَّهُ ۖ فَأَنَّىٰ يُؤْفَكُونَ ﴾

“And thus it is [with most people]: if thou ask them, “Who is it that has created the heavens and the earth, and made the sun and the moon subservi­ent [to His laws]?” - they will surely answer, “God.” How perverted, then, are their minds!”

(And if thou wert to ask them) i.e. the disbelievers of Mecca: (Who created the heavens and the earth, and constrained) and made subservient (the sun and the moon? they would say) the disbelievers of Mecca would say: (Allah) created and made them subservient. (How then are they turned away?) How then do they lie against Allah?
