Verse 51
Translation:
51. Allah has said: "Take not (for worship) two gods: for He is just One Allah: then fear Me (and Me alone)."
Notes (Tafseer):
2077. The ancient Persians believed in two powers in the Universe, one good and the other evil. The Pagan Arabs also had pairs of deities: e.g., Jibr (Sorcery) and Tagut (Evil), referred to in iv. 51, n. 573, or the idols on Safa and Marwa referred to in n. 160 to ii. 158: their names were Isaf and Naila.
