وَجَعَلُوا لَهُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ جُزْءًا ۚ إِنَّ الْإِنسَانَ لَكَفُورٌ مُّبِينٌ (43:15) Yet they have made some of His servants a part of Him. *15 Indeed man is most evidently thankless. *15) To make part of Allah implies declaring a servant of Allah His offspring, for an offspring inevitably is homogeneous with and a part of the fathers body, and regarding somebody as Allahs son or daughter means that he or she is being made a partner in Allahs Being. Besides, another form of making a creature a part of Allah is that it should be regarded as possessor of the attributes and powers as are specifically Allahs own, and it should be invoked under the same concept, or rites of worship performed before it, or its sanctities observed and regarded as imperative and binding, for in that case man divides divinity and providence between Allah and His servants and hands over a part of it to the servants.
