Ibn Abbas Commentary
(Save single minded slaves of Allah) save the slaves of Allah who are sincere in their profession of Allah's divine Oneness and in their worship: these slaves do not invent lies about Allah; it is also said that this verse should be understood as follows: those who claim that there is a kinship between Allah and the angels will be tormented and none of them will escape this torment except the sincere slaves of Allah who are protected from disbelief, idolatry and indecencies.
