Surah Yunus ayat 106 Tafsir Quran 10:106

﴿وَلَا تَدْعُ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ مَا لَا يَنفَعُكَ وَلَا يَضُرُّكَ ۖ فَإِن فَعَلْتَ فَإِنَّكَ إِذًا مِّنَ الظَّالِمِينَ﴾
[ يونس: 106]

10:106 And do not invoke besides Allah that which neither benefits you nor harms you, for if you did, then indeed you would be of the wrongdoers.'"

and do not call upon do not worship besides God that which can neither profit you should you worship it nor hurt you should you not worship it; for if you do this hypothetically speaking then you will surely be of the evildoers.

Nor invoke besides Allah what shall not profit you nor harm you, for if you do, you shall then be one of those who are wrongful of actions

The Command to worship Allah Alone and rely upon Him Allah, the Exalted, says to His Messenger, Muhammad , `Say: O mankind! If you are in doubt about the correctness of that which I have been sent with the Hanif ( monotheism ) religion - the religion which Allah has revealed to me -- then know that I do not worship those whom you worship besides Allah.
Rather, I worship Allah alone, ascribing no partners to Him.
He is the One Who causes you to die just as He gives you life.
Then, unto Him is your final return.
If the gods that you call upon are real, I still refuse to worship them.
So call upon them and ask them to harm me, and you will see that they can bring no harm or benefit.
The only One Who holds the power of harm and benefit in His Hand is Allah alone, Who has no partners.' وَأُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( And I was commanded to be one of the believers. ) 10:104 Concerning Allah's statement, وَأَنْ أَقِمْ وَجْهَكَ لِلدِّينِ حَنِيفًا ( And that you direct your face towards the Hanif religion ) This means to make one's intention in worship solely for Allah alone, being a Hanif.
Hanif means one who turns away from associating partners with Allah.
For this reason Allah says, وَلاَ تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكَينَ ( and not be one of the idolators.
) This statement is directly connected with the previous statement, وَأُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( And I was commanded to be one of the believers. ) Concerning His statement, وَإِن يَمْسَسْكَ اللَّهُ بِضُرٍّ ( And if Allah touches you with harm, ) This verse contains the explanation that good, evil, benefit and harm only come from Allah alone and no one shares with His power over these things.
Therefore, He is the One Who deserves to be worshipped alone, without ascription of partners.
Concerning His statement, وَهُوَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ ( And He is the Pardoning, the Merciful. ) This means that He is forgiving and merciful towards those who turn to Him in repentance, regardless of what sin the person has committed.
Even if the person associated a partner with Allah, verily Allah would forgive him if he repented from it.

( And cry not ) worship not, ( beside Allah, unto that which cannot profit thee ) in the life of this world or in the Hereafter if you were to worship it ( nor hurt thee ) if you did not worship it, ( for if thou didst so ) for if you worshipped it ( then wert thou of the wrong-doers ) of those who harm themselves.

"And invoke not besides Allah, any that will neither profit you, nor hurt you, but if (in case) you did so, you shall certainly be one of the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers)."
