Saheeh International
Except he who is to [enter and] burn in the Hellfire.
Ibn Kathir
Tafseer 'Ibn Kathir' (EN)
So, verily you and those whom you worship cannot lead astray, except those who are predestined to burn in Hell!
meaning, `the only ones who will believe what you say and follow your misguided ways of false worship are those who are more misguided than you and are created for Hell.'
لَهُمْ قُلُوبٌ لاَّ يَفْقَهُونَ بِهَا وَلَهُمْ أَعْيُنٌ لاَّ يُبْصِرُونَ بِهَا وَلَهُمْ ءَاذَانٌ لاَّ يَسْمَعُونَ بِهَأ أُوْلَـيِكَ كَالَانْعَـمِ بَلْ هُمْ أَضَلُّ أُوْلَـيِكَ هُمُ الْغَـفِلُونَ
They have hearts wherewith they understand not, and they have eyes wherewith they see not, and they have ears wherewith they hear not (the truth). They are like cattle, nay even more astray; those! They are the heedless ones. (7:179)
This is the parable of the people who follow the belief and ideas of Shirk, disbelief and misguidance, as Allah says:
إِنَّكُمْ لَفِى قَوْلٍ مُّخْتَلِفٍ
يُوْفَكُ عَنْهُ مَنْ أُفِكَ
Certainly, you have different ideas. Turned aside therefrom is he who is turned aside (by the decree of Allah). (51:8-9)
meaning, the one who is misled by it is the one who is turned aside.
The Place of the Angels and Their Ranks glorify Allah
Then Allah says, declaring the angels to be above the position attributed to them by those who disbelieved in them and told lies about them -- that they are the daughters of Allah --
وَمَا مِنَّا إِلاَّ لَهُ مَقَامٌ مَّعْلُومٌ
