Tafsir jalalayn
Say; `Is there of those whom you associate [with God] one that guides to the truth?', by [means of] setting up [definitive] arguments and creating guidance. Say; `God guides to the truth; is One Who guides to the truth -- and this is God -- more deserving of being followed, or one who does not guide, [one who] is not [himself] guided, unless he is guided?, more deserving of being followed? (the interrogative is meant as an affirmation and a rebuke, in other words, the former is more deserving). So what is wrong with you, how do you judge?', [how do you make] this corrupt judgement, one where what does not deserve to be followed is followed?
Tafseer Ibn Kathir
قُلْ هَلْ مِن شُرَكَأيِكُم مَّن يَهْدِي إِلَى الْحَقِّ قُلِ اللّهُ يَهْدِي لِلْحَقِّ
Say;"Is there of your partners one that guides to the truth!"
Say;"It is Allah who guides to the truth..."
You know that your deities are incapable of guiding those who are astray. It is Allah alone Who guides the misled and confused ones and turns the hearts from the wrong path to the right path. It is Allah, none has the right to be worshipped but He.
أَفَمَن يَهْدِي إِلَى الْحَقِّ أَحَقُّ أَن يُتَّبَعَ أَمَّن لاَّ يَهِدِّيَ إِلاَّ أَن يُهْدَى
Is then He Who guides to the truth more worthy to be followed, or he who finds not guidance (himself) unless he is guided!
Will the servant then follow the one who guides to the truth so that he may see after he was blind, or follow one who doesn't guide to anything except towards blindness and muteness Allah said that Ibrahim said;
يأَبَتِ لِمَ تَعْبُدُ مَا لاأَ يَسْمَعُ وَلاأَ يَبْصِرُ وَلاأَ يُغْنِى عَنكَ شَيْياً
O my father! Why do you worship that which hears not, sees not and cannot avail you in anything! (19;42)
And said to his people
قَالَ أَتَعْبُدُونَ مَا تَنْحِتُونَ
وَاللَّهُ خَلَقَكُمْ وَمَا تَعْمَلُونَ
Worship you that which you (yourselves) carve While Allah has created you and what you make! (37;95-96)
Also, there are many Ayat in this regard.
Allah then said;
فَمَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ
Then, what is the matter with you! How judge you!
What is the matter with you! What has happened to your mind! How did you make Allah's creatures equal to Him! What kind of judgement did you make to turn away from Allah and worship this or that! Why did you not worship the Lord -- Glorified be He, the True King, the Judge and the One Who guides to the truth! Why didn't you call upon Him alone and turn towards Him!
Allah says;
