The misinterpretation
They have no friends to help them other than Allah. Whoever Allah leads astray, he has no way of salvation.
The right translation
There are no friends to help them, but Allah. There is no path to salvation for those who deviate from Allah (who continue on going astray).
Explanation
This is where this verse goes wrong: Whoever Allah leads astray, he has no way of salvation. The truth is: Whoever deviates from Allah (continues on that path), he has no way to salvation.
Our Lord does not lead anyone astray by exercising His will over people in the world. Our Lord invites all of His servants to Him. He has sent the Holy Qur'an as a mercy to the worlds. In that case, Our Lord will not lead anyone astray by discriminating between His servants.
When our Lord and mankind made a covenant at Kalu Bela, they dictated their destiny to themselves. In this case, those who deny our Lord at Kalu Bela will of course continue to deny Him in the worldly realm. Because their desires and wishes have become their destiny and they have been given characters to live out this destiny in return for their desires and wishes.
When people come to this world, with these characters, they have the desire and desire for the deeds they will do, and our Lord creates causes for them, and they receive rewards or sins for their actions. So in this worldly life, our Lord never interferes in what people do. People prove what kind of person they are in return for what they do.

(?) I don't know that one either.
Verse 46 has been rendered wrongly. They have no friends at all besides Allah who will help them. Not just they — the whole world cannot help anyone besides Allah. Except the servants Allah permits, again by Allah's will and wish. Whomever Allah leads astray has no way out to salvation either, it says. They make the same mistakes here. Always: Allah led His servants astray (?). Or: He threw whom He willed into Hell. Or: He did this to whom He willed, did that. All of this then shakes a person's trust in Allah. "Allah led this one astray. Allah will put whom He wills into Hell, whom He wills into Paradise." What will happen? A person's trust in Allah will be shaken.
"Maybe I, sir, am bound for Hell (?), why worship?" he says. "Well, it's like this, it is left to what Allah wills. (?) Maybe I'm bound for Paradise," he says. These are wrong things. May Allah protect us.
