Surah Ibrahim Ayat 30 Tafsir (Commentry)

66. From this we learn that the basis of polytheism is to make someone equal to Allah Almighty.

Even if one takes someone as a servant of Allah Almighty and yet accepts him as Allah in some attribute of Allah, such a person will be a polytheist. Thus, the infidels would be addressing their idols on the Day of Judgement in the following way: 

"When we made you equal with the Lord of the worlds" (S26 V98) If the person does not have such a belief, it will not be polytheism. The belief of the infidels is that their idols had the full authority of polytheism, but the belief of the believers is that the Prophets and servants of Allah Almighty who have been empowered by Allah Almighty in worldly matters, is a high degree of faith. 

An example of this is accepting the ruler or the king as an authority in his kingdom. It is for this reason that the respect of Ganges is polytheism but accepting the sanctity of the water of Zam Zam is part of Faith. Prostrating to an idol is polytheism but prostration towards the Holy Ka'ba is an act of Faith.
