6937. Narrated 'Abdullāh رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: When the Verse : "It is those believe (in the Oneness of Allāh and worship none but Him Alone) and confuse not their belief with Zulm (wrong i.e., by worshipping others besides Allāh)... " (V.6:82) was revealed, it was hard on the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ and they said, "Who among us has not wronged himself?" Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "The meaning of the Verse is not as you think, but it is as Luqmān said to his son, (as mentioned in the Qur'an): '...O my son! Join not in worship others with Allāh. Verily! Joining others in worship with Allāh is a great Zulm (wrong) indeed.' " (V.31:13)
