Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

Clarifying the State of the Leaders of the Innovators and Those Who lead People astrayAllah has already told us about the ignorant imitators who are led astray:وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَن يُجَـدِلُ فِى اللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَيَتَّبِعُ كُلَّ شَيْطَـنٍ مَّرِيدٍ(And among mankind is he who disputes about Allah, without knowledge, and follows every rebellious Shaytan.
