وَأَنَّ ٱلْمَسَٰجِدَ لِلَّهِ فَلَا تَدْعُوا۟ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ أَحَدًۭا
Wa annal masaajida lillaahi falaa tad'oo ma'al laahi ahadaa
And [He revealed] that the masjids are for Allah, so do not invoke with Allah anyone.
Tafsir
Scholars offer complementary perspectives
And it has been revealed to me that the places of prayer belong to God so do not invoke in them anyone along with God by associating others with Him like the Jews and Christians do who when they enter their churches and temples they ascribe partners to God.
