Tafsir Al-Jalalayn: Al-Hajj, Ayah 71
وَيَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَمْ يُنَزِّلْ بِهِۦ سُلْطَٰنًۭا وَمَا لَيْسَ لَهُم بِهِۦ عِلْمٌۭ ۗ وَمَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ مِن نَّصِيرٍۢ
And they worship besides Allah that for which He has not sent down authority and that of which they have no knowledge. And there will not be for the wrongdoers any helper.

(And they) the disbelievers of Mecca (worship instead of Allah that for which no warrant has been revealed unto them) without any Scripture or pretext, (and that whereof they have no knowledge) proof or clarification. (For evil-doers) for idolaters (there is no helper) to save them from Allah's chastisement.
Al-Jalalayn Commentary
And they the idolaters worship besides God that namely idols for which He has never revealed any warrant any definitive proof and that of which they have no knowledge when they claim that these are gods. And those who do evil by way of practising idolatry shall have no helper to protect them against God’s chastisement.
