Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

None can make Anything Lawful or Unlawful except Allah or Those Whom Allah has allowed to do soIbn `Abbas, Mujahid, Ad-Dahhak, Qatadah, `Abdur-Rahman bin Zayd bin Aslam and others said: "This Ayah was revealed to criticize the idolators for what they used to make lawful and unlawful. Like the Bahirah, Sa'ibah and Wasilah." As Allah said: وَجَعَلُواْ لِلَّهِ مِمَّا ذَرَأَ مِنَ الْحَرْثِ وَالاٌّنْعَامِ نَصِيباً(And they assign to Allah a share of the tilth and cattle which He has created.
