Verse56

Section 7
The Judgment
Kingdom is only Allah's - Allah's knowledge comprehends every thing.

(56) قُلْ إِنِّي نُهِيتُ أَنْ أَعْبُدَ الَّذِينَ تَدْعُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ قُلْ لا أَتَّبِعُ أَهْواءَكُمْ قَدْ ضَلَلْتُ إِذاً وَ ما أَنَا مِنَ الْمُهْتَدِينَ

56. " Say: ' I am forbidden to worship those whom you call besides Allah', Say: ' I do not follow your low desires, for then indeed I should have gone astray and I will not be of the (rightly) guided."


Commentary :
The undue desires, from anybody they are issued, should be explicitly responded with a negative answer.
The source of the Prophet's determinations (p.b.u.h.) is Divine revelation.
Acquittance from infidelity is a part of Islam. Polytheistic belief is the root of sensual desires.
Thus, a preacher of the Faith ought not follow to quench the people's desires, but he should act for the sake and pleasure of Allah. The verse says :
" Say: ' I am forbidden to worship those whom you call besides Allah', Say: ' I do not follow your low desires, for then indeed I should have gone astray and I will not be of the (rightly) guided."
