إِن يَدْعُونَ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ إِلَّآ إِنَٰثًا وَإِنيَدْعُونَ إِلَّا شَيْطَٰنًا مَّرِيدًا (117)
لَّعَنَهُ ٱللَّهُ وَقَالَ لَأَتَّخِذَنَّ مِنْ عِبَادِكَ نَصِيبًا مَّفْرُوضًا (118)
وَلَأُضِلَّنَّهُمْ وَلَأُمَنِّيَنَّهُمْ وَلَءَامُرَنَّهُمْفَلَيُبَتِّكُنَّ ءَاذَانَ ٱلْأَنْعَٰمِ (119a)

117. They invoke in His stead only females; they pray to
none else than Satan, a rebel-
118, whom Allah cursed, and he said; Surely I will take
of Thy bondmen an appointed portion-
119a. And surely I will lead them astray, and surely I
will arouse desires in them, and surely I will command them so that they will
cut the cattle’s’ ears-

Commentary
Maf-ruuzaa – {appointed (portion)}, it is from Farz, which means ‘to fix, to
appoint and to establish’. Here, aim from maf-ruuza is ‘appointed, fixed’.
La-‘umanni-yanna – (Surely I will arouse desires, put in
hopes), it has been derived from the word manni-yah which means ‘wish, desire and longing’.
La-yu-batti-kunna - (they
will cut), this word has been derived from the word batak, which means ‘to cut’.
‘An-‘aamun – (the cattle), it is from na-‘ama, which means ‘a beast’,
that is to say; the quadruped (animals), which are brought up for working, like
camel, ox, cow and horse etc.
Allah Almighty has been drawing attention of
the mankind for observing the wisdom of those people, who, by turning away from
Him, seek support of stones, to which they have named like females. It is the
last limit of their stupidity that they call such things and supplicate from
them. Actually they have been taken in the deception of Satan and in the screen
of those things; they don’t call someone else but Satan. The reality of Satan
is that he (disobedient) has turned his face from the Command of Allah Almighty and He has driven him out
from His Royal Court. When Allah Almighty appointed the Devil as
“outcast, cursed and rejected”, then Satan said, “Now I shall remain in trying
my best to mislead the children of Adam (peace be upon Him) from
Your Prescribed Way (the Straight Path), by penetrating in to them,
to whom I could control. They will pay gifts and oblations of my name; they
will cut the ears of quadruped animals like camels, oxen, cows and horses etc.
and set them at their liberty”.
