(See) O Muhammad (what similitudes they coin for thee) how they liken you to a bewitched person, (and thus are all astray) and thus are wrong in what they say, (and cannot find a road!) out of what they said; and it is also said that this means: they cannot find a proof from what they say.
Al-Jalalayn Commentary
God exalted be He says Look how they strike similitudes for you such as your being bewitched a soothsayer or a poet and they go astray thereby from the path of guidance and cannot find a way a path to it!
