ترجمة الآية 44 من سورة Maryam - English - سورة مريم : عدد الآيات 98 - - الصفحة 308 - الجزء 16.
"O my father! Worship not Shaitan (Satan). Verily! Shaitan (Satan) has been a rebel against the Most Beneficent (Allah).
O my father, do not worship Satan. Indeed Satan has ever been, to the Most Merciful, disobedient.
(19:44) Dear father! do not serve Satan, *27 for Satan is disobedient to the Merciful.
*27) It should be noted that the literal translation of the Arabic text is: "Do not worship Satan", though Abraham's father and the other people did not worship Satan in the same sense as they worshipped idols. But as they followed and obeyed Satan, he accused them of worshipping Satan. Thus it is clear that if somebody follows and obeys , Satan, he virtually worships him. For Satan has never been a deity in the sense that people have made him an object of worship; nay, they have always been cursing him and following him at the same time. (For further details see Surah Al-Kahf (XVIII) E.N.'s 49-50).
