Allaah (The Most High) said:
لَّا تَجْعَلْ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا آخَرَ فَتَقْعُدَ مَذْمُومًا مَّخْذُولًا
”Set not up with Allah any other ilah (god), (O man)! , or you will sit down reproved, forsaken (in the hell fire)” [Soorah Al-Israa: Ayah:22]
Imaam Ibnul Qayyim (rahimahullaah) said:
Reproved and not praised by anyone, forsaken and having no helper. [1] That is because some people are subdued but they are praised, such as the one subdued based on falsehood. [2] And he may be reproved and helped, such as the one who is subdued and overpowered based on falsehood. [3] And it may be that he is praised and helped, such as the one who is steadfast and judges with justice.
[4] As for the one who associates a partner with [Allaah in worship], he is the degraded one amongst the four categories- neither is he praised nor helped. [Badaa-I At-Tafseer Al-Jaami Limaa Fassarahu Al-Imaam Ibnu Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah: Page: 136: vol: 2]
