ASY SYUURA (MUSYAWARAT) — Ayat 9

9

أَمِ اتَّخَذُوا مِن دُونِهِ أَوْلِيَاء فَاللَّهُ هُوَ الْوَلِيُّ وَهُوَ يُحْيِي المَوْتَى وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

Or have they taken protectors [or allies] besides him? But Allah - He is the Protector, and He gives life to the dead, and He is over all things competent.

Tafsir Ibnu Katsir

Tafsir

{Or have they taken besides Him} meaning idols {protectors?} The word “am” is disconnected, meaning: rather, which is for transition, and the hamza is for denial, meaning that those who have taken are not protectors. {Then God is the Protector} meaning the Supporter of the believers, and the “fa” is for the sake of conjunction. {And He gives life to the dead, and He is over all things competent.}
