ٱللَّهُ وَلِيُّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ يُخۡرِجُهُم مِّنَ ٱلظُّلُمَٰتِ إِلَى ٱلنُّورِۖ وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓاْ أَوۡلِيَآؤُهُمُ ٱلطَّٰغُوتُ يُخۡرِجُونَهُم مِّنَ ٱلنُّورِ إِلَى ٱلظُّلُمَٰتِۗ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلنَّارِۖ هُمۡ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ

Allāh is the Ally¹⁰⁵ of those who believe. He brings them out from darknesses into the light. And those who disbelieve - their allies are ṭāghūt. They take them out of the light into darknesses.¹⁰⁶ Those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide eternally therein.

Al-Mukhtasar

Allah takes care of those who believe in Him. He grants them success and victory and takes them out of the darkness of disbelief and ignorance into the light of belief and knowledge. The allies of the disbelievers are the idols, who beautify disbelief to them and take them from the light of belief and knowledge into the darkness of disbelief and ignorance. They are the people of the Fire who will remain therein forever.
