86. From this one learns that on the Day of Judgement first all the infidels and believers will be brought together. Then believers, will be separated from the infidels. Allah Almighty will say: "And today, be separate. O you culprits!" (S36 V59) .Believers should see to it that even in the world they should be different from the infidels in appearance and character.
87. This means the idols Laat, Manaat, Uzza, etc. This does not include those Prophets who were made object of worship by their followers, as is eroneously thought by some.Â
88. From this we learn that on the Day of Judgement Allah Almighty will grant those idols the power of speech with which they will oppose their worshippers.. Also, the word associates does not refer to angels or Prophets, because since they were fully aware of the deeds of the polytheists, how can they deny. Also, this verse is revealed in Makkah in which the polytheists of Makkah are being addressed who did not believe in the Prophets

28. And the Day whereon We shall gather them all together, then We shall say to those who did set partners in worship with Us: “Stop at your place! You and your partners.” Then We shall separate them, and their partners shall say: “It was not us that you used to worship.” 29. “So sufficient is Allah as a witness between us and you that we indeed knew nothing of your worship of us.” 30. There! Every person will know (exactly) what he had earned before and they will be brought back to Allah, their rightful Mawla (Lord), and their invented false deities will vanish from them.
Allah said:
(And the Day whereon We shall gather them) Allah will gather together all the creatures of earth, human and Jinn, righteous and rebellious. He said in another Ayah:
(and We shall gather them all together so as to leave not one of them behind.)﴿18:47﴾
(then We shall say to those who did associate partners: “Stop at your place! You and your partners.”) He then will command the idolators to stay where they are and not to move from their destined places so they would be separated from the place of the believers. Similarly, Allah said:
((It will be said): “And O you the criminals! Get you apart this Day (from the believers).)(36:59) Allah also said:
(And on the Day when the Hour will be established – that Day shall (all men) be separated (the believers will be separated from the disbelievers). )﴿30:14﴾ In the same Surah, ﴿Ar-Rum﴾, Allah said:
(On that Day men shall be divided.) ﴿30:43﴾ means, they shall be divided in two. This is what will take place when Allah Almighty will come for Final Judgement. The believers intercede to Allah so the Final Judgement may come and they get rid of that state. The Prophet said,
(On the Day of Resurrection, we will be in a visible place above the ﴿other﴾ people.) Allah tells us here what He is going to command the idolators and their idols to do on the Day of Resurrection
(“Stop at your place! You and your partners.” Then We shall separate them,) and that they would deny their worship and claim their innocence from them. Similarly, Allah said: `
(Nay, but they will deny their worship of them.)﴿19:82﴾,
(When those who were followed declare themselves innocent of those who followed (them).)﴿2:166﴾, and;
(And who is more astray than one who calls on (invokes) besides Allah, such as will not answer him till the Day of Resurrection, and who are (even) unaware of their calls (invocations) to them And when mankind are gathered (on the Day of Resurrection), they (false deities) will become their enemies)﴿46:5-6﴾. This refers to the partners responding to those who worshipped them, Then Allah said:
(So sufficient is Allah as a witness between us and you.) They say that we did not know or think that you were worshipping us. Allah is a Witness between us and you that we never called upon you to worship us. We never ordered you to worship us; neither did we accept your worship of us. Allah said:
(There! Every person will know (exactly) what he had earned before) This will be the state of accounting on the Day of Resurrection. Every soul shall know all that it had sent forth, both good and evil. Similarly, Allah said:
(The Day when all the secrets will be examined.)﴿86:9﴾,
(On that Day man will be informed of what he sent forward (of deeds), and what he left behind.)﴿75:13﴾, and
(. ..and on the Day of Resurrection, We shall bring out for him a book which he will find wide open. (It will be said to him): “Read your book. You yourself are sufficient as a reckoner against you this Day.”) ﴿17:13-14﴾ Then Allah said,
(and they will be brought back to Allah, their rightful Mawla.) All affairs and matters will be brought back to Allah, the Judge, the All-Just. He will judge everyone, and then admit the people of Paradise in Paradise and the people of Hell to Hell.
(and will vanish from them) meaning what the idolators worshipped,
(what they invented) what they worshipped besides Allah that they invented.
(10:28) And the Day when We shall muster them all together, We shall say to those who associated others with Allah in His divinity: ‘Keep to your places – you and those whom you associated with Allah.’ Then We shall remove the veil of foreignness separating them.[36] Those whom they had associated with Allah will say. ‘It was not us that you worshipped.
36. Some commentators are of the opinion that the original words of the text mean this: We will cut off every kind of connection and relation between them so that they are not able to show any concern for one another. But these meanings are opposed to the Arabic usage, according to which they mean: We will distinguish them from one another, or We will cause a distinction among them. That is why these have been translated like this: Then We will separate, one from the other. That is, the mushriks and their deities shall stand in front of each other and recognize their mutual and respective positions. The mushriks shall come to know the whole truth about those whom they worshiped and their deities will learn everything about their worshipers.
[522]- Those they had associated with Allāh. [523]- From the believers. [524]- The inanimate objects, such as idols, will not have been aware of their worship of them. But those beings who consented to be worshipped will lie and deny it on the Day of Judgement.
