SUMMARY

Surah Al-Kafirun has brought into bearing to convey that idolatry is disavowed and that only monotheism is the favored path. Surah Kafirun emphasizes no compromise in worship, distinguishing the believers’ faith from the disbelievers’, and concludes with mutual separation of religions: About your religion, do as you wish, and about mine, as well.
