(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)
وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يَتَّخِذُ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ أَندَادًا يُحِبُّونَهُمْ كَحُبِّ ٱللَّهِ وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ أَشَدُّحُبًّا لِّلَّهِ (165 a)
165a.
And yet of mankind are some who take unto themselves (objects of
worship which they set as) rivals to Allah, loving them with a love like
(that which is the due) of Allah (only). And those who believe are stauncher
in their love for Allah.

Commentary
‘Andaadan – (similar,
matching, opposite, converse), for instance; love for Idols, statues or
demi-gods etc. or leaders, landlords, spiritual guides or any priest takes
place in the heart opposite to God Almighty and that love overcomes on the
heart.
In the earlier verses,
God Almighty has described after telling about His Deity, Beneficence and Mercy
that He has created the entire Universe for the necessities of the human
beings, that is to say; the earth, the skies, the day, the night, the boats,
the rain, the production of the earth, the cattle, the quadruped, the air and
the clouds etc. the mankind reaps advantage from these things, fulfills his
needs and lives a comfortable life. He should be grateful to Allah Almighty
after obtaining these blessings and favors.
Repentance! Some
people forget Allah Almighty instead of being grateful to Him. They place
others at the Dignity of God Almighty who bestowed them His blessings. They
make them their worshiped, settle them His partners and expose their love and
faith for them which was required to be kept only for God Almighty. There is
recitation regarding such people in this verse.
Some stupid and
un-foreseeing people include idols, demi-gods and spiritual guides in
partnership with God Almighty and consider them powerful, that is to say; the
Christians worship Jesus Christ and Mary (peace be upon them) along-with God
Almighty. The Japanese consider their king as from the dynasty of God “I
seek refuge in ALLAH from Satan the outcast”.
Allah Almighty
commanded that the real love must be only for Him Who is the Creator, the
Master and the Worshiped. It is the sign of a perfect Believer that he would
have kept the most beloved to God Almighty; he should strengthen excessive love
for Him (Allah Almighty) in his heart.
It
has come in the Sayings of the Last Messenger, Muhammad (glory, grace,
blessings and peace be upon Him) “The Believer is that who has friendship
and enmity for God Almighty. The individual who is beloved of God Almighty and
loves Him, he keeps only that person his friend, who loves Him and with whom
God Almighty is angry, he considers him his enemy”.
