(Ye serve instead of Allah only idols) stones, (and ye only invent a lie) carving with your own hand what you worship beside Allah. (Lo! those whom ye serve instead of Allah) of idols (own no provision for you) they are unable to provide your sustenance. (So seek your provision from Allah, and serve Him) declare His divine Oneness, (and give thanks unto Him) through the profession of Allah's divine Oneness, ((for) unto Him ye will be brought back) after death and He will reward each according to his works.
- 29:1717
إِنَّمَا تَعْبُدُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ أَوْثَانًا وَتَخْلُقُونَ إِفْكًا ۚ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ تَعْبُدُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ لَكُمْ رِزْقًا فَابْتَغُوا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ الرِّزْقَ وَاعْبُدُوهُ وَاشْكُرُوا لَهُ ۖ إِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ
You worship idols in place of God and invent lies. Surely those you worship other than God have no power over your means of livelihood. So seek your sustenance from God, and worship Him and give Him thanks. To Him will you be brought back in the end.
