Vers: 23

لَا جَرَمَ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَعۡلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعۡلِنُونَۚ إِنَّهُۥ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُسۡتَكۡبِرِينَ

(23) ^[3255]Without a doubt, Allah knows what they hide and what they make public; verily He loves not the snobbish!

[3255] The fact already stated in Aya 19 above, but in general terms, is being vigorously asserted and reiterated here with its direct intendants being revealed. This constitutes a direct threat to the Associators (cf. al-Biqāʿī, Naẓm al-Durar) that God Almighty, Who Knows all their secret and public deeds and beliefs, will hold them to exacting account over them (cf. al-Ṭabarī, al-Wāḥidī, al-Wasīṭ, al-Saʿdī). This is due to their arrogance and snobbishness (cf. al-Biqāʿī, Naẓm al-Durar, Ibn ʿĀshūr): “Indeed they have become too proud of themselves and excessively insolent!” (25: 21).
