Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
The gods of the Idolators did not witness the Creation of anything, not even ThemselvesAllah says: `These whom you take as helpers instead of Me are creatures just like you. They do not possess anything and did not witness the creation of heaven and earth, because they did not exist at that time.' Allah says, `I am the One Who independently and exclusively creates and controls all things, and I have no partner, associate or advisor in that.
