Ayat
71. And they worship besides Allah others for which He has
sent down no authority, and of which they have no knowledge and for the
Zalimun (wrong-doers, polytheists and disbelievers in the Oneness of
Allah) there is no helper.
[Tafseer] Yet they
worship, besides Allah, things for which no authority has been sent down to
them, and of which they have (really) no knowledge: for those that do wrong
there is no helper. When plain common-sense shows the
absurdity of false worship, behind which there is neither knowledge,
intelligence, nor authority (quite the contrary), who or what can help the false
misguided creatures who dishonour Allah by false
worship?
Hazrat Abu
Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah 
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "Verily, Allah likes three
things for you and disapproves three things for you. He likes that you should
worship Him Alone, not to associate anything with Him (in worship) and to hold
fast to the Rope of Allah and not to be divided among yourselves; and He
disapproves for you irrelevant talk, persistent questioning and the squandering
of the wealth.''
[Muslim
Book 018, Chapter 03,
Hadith #
4255]."
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah Al-Hajj Ayat 71."they worship besides
Allah others" Beside stressing Tauhid, holding fast to
the Rope of Allah and unity (which are greatly liked by Allah), this Hadith
forbids unnecessary debate, hair-splitting and extravagance as all the three are
disliked by Allah. Wealth has a great importance in man's life since it is the
very source of sustenance and basis of his livelihood, its wastage is akin to
cutting the branch of the tree on which one is sitting.
