قُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ 

Qul ya ayyuha alkafiroon(a)

Say you-SW: Infidels!

(109:1)


لَا أَعْبُدُ مَا تَعْبُدُونَ 

La aAAbudu ma taAAbudoon(a)

I-SW worship not what you worship.

(109:2)


وَلَا أَنتُمْ عَابِدُونَ مَا أَعْبُدُ

Wala antum AAabidoona ma aAAbud(u)

Nor are you the worshippers of what I-SW worship.

وَلَا أَنَا عَابِدٌ مَّا عَبَدتُّمْ 

Wala ana AAabidun ma Aaabadtum

And I-SW shall not be a worshipper of what you have worshipped

(109:4)


وَلَا أَنتُمْ عَابِدُونَ مَا أَعْبُدُ 

Wala antum AAabidoona ma aAAbud(u)

Nor will you be the worshipper of what I-SW worship.

(109:5)


لَكُمْ دِينُكُمْ وَلِيَ دِينِ 

Lakum deenukum waliya deen(i)

Your requital shall be yours, and my-SW requital shall be mine-SW.

(109:6)


In The Name of Allah-SWT the Most Gracious, The Most Merciful
SECRETS OF REVELATION:

The Holy Prophet-SW must proclaim that he-SW is Allah-SWT's Messenger and a Unitarian, who cannot possibly worship the idols. The polytheists of Makkah had offered him-SW compromise on the condition that he-SW will not negate their idols. It was revealed to him-SW that not negating falsehood amounts to accepting it. A believer cannot accept disbelief and, under all circumstances, calls wrong a wrong. And so long as they stick to infidelity and their ungodly beliefs and practices, they cannot worship what the Holy Prophet-SW does. Islam is not a religion of compromise, whereby any concept of infidelity is inducted into it. Rather it is implemented after wiping out infidelity. So O' infidels! Do not expect any compromise from the Holy Prophet-SW as his-SW Din guarantees complete success. And those who continue to stick to their religions despite Allah-SWT's final Message will soon see their fate.
