Translation
(74) And on the Day He shall call out to them and say, ‘Where are those whom you alleged were My partners.’ (75) And We shall bring forth from every people a witness and We shall say to them: ‘Bring your proof.’ Then they will know that truth belongs to God alone, and that which they used to invent will fall away from them.
Commentary
(a) The Prophet and the Prophet’s true missionaries will, on the Day of Judgement, be asked to act as witnesses of God. They will describe the reaction of the communities to whom it had been their duty to convey God’s message. On that Day, all the false props of these communities will collapse. Those who denied the Truth, while relying on others except God, will try to put up a defence, but they will not find the words to defend themselves.
