📖 Commentary on Surah Al-A‘raaf – Verse 139

Surely, what they are involved in is destined for destruction, and whatever they are doing is completely void (297).

✅ The Fate of Idol Worship Is Utter Destruction (297)

Musa (peace be upon him) declared with certainty that idol worship and its followers are doomed to perish. Their practices are completely baseless and void, with no truth or spiritual value. This statement was not only a warning but also a prophecy, foretelling that those idolaters and their idols would soon be destroyed by divine command. He reminded the Israelites that they were not meant to follow such people, but to be idol-breakers, not idol-makers—a role that later events fulfilled exactly as foretold.
