43:86

وَلَا يَمْلِكُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ مِن دُونِهِ ٱلشَّفَـٰعَةَ إِلَّا مَن شَهِدَ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ ٨٦

Saheeh International

And those they invoke besides Him do not possess [power of] intercession; but only those who testify to the truth [can benefit], and they know.

Tafsir of "Ibn Kathir" (English)

وَلَا يَمْلِكُ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ مِن دُونِهِAnd those whom they invoke instead of Him have no power,means, the idols and false gods. الشَّفَاعَةَof intercession,means, they are not able to intercede for them. إِلاَّ مَن شَهِدَ بِالْحَقِّ وَهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَexcept for those who bear witness to the truth knowingly, and they know.This means, but the one who bears witness to the truth has knowledge and insight, so his intercession with Allah will avail, by His leave.The Idolators admit that Allah Alone is the Creator Allah exalted says, وَلَيِن سَأَلْتَهُم مَّنْ خَلَقَهُمْ لَيَقُولُنَّ اللَّهُ فَأَنَّى يُوْفَكُونَ
