Tafsir
Scholars largely agree on this ayah
If you call on them they will not hear your call and even if they heard —hypothetically speaking — they would not be able to respond to you; and on the Day of Resurrection they will disown your idolatrous associations in other words your associating them with God in power that is to say they will declare themselves innocent of you and of your worship of them. And none can inform you about the state in the two abodes like One Who is Aware Knower and this is God exalted be He.
