Tafseer 'Ibn Kathir' (EN)

أَلَهُمْ أَرْجُلٌ يَمْشُونَ بِهَا أَمْ لَهُمْ أَيْدٍ يَبْطِشُونَ بِهَا أَمْ لَهُمْ أَعْيُنٌ يُبْصِرُونَ بِهَا أَمْ لَهُمْ اذَانٌ يَسْمَعُونَ بِهَا

Have they feet wherewith they walk! Or have they hands wherewith they hold! Or have they eyes wherewith they see! Or have they ears wherewith they hear!

Allah states that the idols were created, just as those who worship them. Rather, the people are better than the idols, because they are able to hear, see and exert harm. The idols, on the other hand, have no such powers.

Allah said next,

قُلِ ادْعُواْ شُرَكَاءكُمْ ثُمَّ كِيدُونِ فَلَ تُنظِرُونِ

Say:"Call your (so-called) partners (of Allah) and then plot against me, and give me no respite!

invoke the idols for aid against me and do not give me respite, even for an instant, and give it your best effort,
