Translation

And it will be said to them, “where are those whom you have been worshipping?

Tafsir

Those who worship others besides Allah, those who ascribe partners to Allah, or those who follow religions that they have invented according to their own minds, will be told on the Day of Reckoning: (And it will be said to them, "Where are those whom you worship?") Those who eat and drink the sustenance that Allah has given them while they are living in the world, and who, being ungrateful to Allah, call upon idols, knowing that this sustenance is from the partners they ascribe to Allah, will be told, "Where are those idols that you worship?

What is said in the video

In Surah Ash-Shu'ara, the 92nd noble verse: and it will be said to them, that is, it will be said to those people of hell: those you used to worship, where are they? Whom did you use to worship? The idols you worshipped. Or the atheists, those who worship one another, where are they? Those idols you made with your hands, that you brought to life in your imagination, where are those idols? they will be asked. To those who worship others besides Allah, who associate partners with Allah, or who follow religions they invented by their own reason, this is said on that day of reckoning: And it will be said to them: Where are those you used to worship?

While they lived in the world, eating the provision Allah gave, being ungrateful to Allah, attributing this provision to the partners they associated with Allah, to those who begged idols: Where are those idols you worshipped, it will be said. On such a day, such a severe day, Eleysallahu bi ahkemi'l-hâkimîn, who is the judge of judges, and besides whom there is no creator, who without spouse or partner gives judgment — before our Lord, when such an interrogation is held, there is no one at all to defend people. You stand before the One Allah. On that day of reckoning only one thing will defend you. Your worship. Not associating partners with Allah. Your advocate, Allah, will help you.

But if you associated partners with Him, if you were ungrateful for the provision given to you, (?) as if others were feeding you, bowing respectfully to them and forgetting Allah, woe to us. Yes.
