Allah the Exalted admonishes the idolators for calling the angels female
names and claiming that they are Allah's daughters. Allah is far removed from
what they ascribe to Him. Allah the Exalted said in another Ayah,
[وَجَعَلُواْ
الْمَلَـئِكَةَ الَّذِينَ هُمْ عِبَادُ الرَّحْمَـنِ إِنَـثاً أَشَهِدُواْ
خَلْقَهُمْ سَتُكْتَبُ شَهَـدَتُهُمْ وَيُسْـَلُونَ ]
(And they make females the angels, who themselves are servants of the Most
Gracious. Did they witness their creation Their testimony will be recorded, and
they will be questioned!)(43:19) Allah's statement here,
[وَمَا لَهُم بِهِ
مِنْ عِلْمٍ]
(But they have no knowledge thereof.) meaning, they have no correct knowledge
testifying to their statements. What they say is all lies, falsehood, fake and
utter atheism,
[إِن يَتَّبِعُونَ
إِلاَّ الظَّنَّ وَإِنَّ الظَّنَّ لاَ يُغْنِى مِنَ الْحَقِّ شَيْئاً]
(They follow but conjecture, and verily, conjecture is no substitute for the
truth.) meaning, conjecture is of no benefit and never takes the place of truth.
In a Hadith recorded in the Sahih, the Messenger of Allah said,
«إِيَّاكُمْ
وَالظَّنَّ، فَإِنَّ الظَّنَّ أَكْذَبُ الْحَدِيث»
(Beware of suspicion, for suspicion is the most lying speech.)
