The questioner : Shaykh, I did not understand the statement that "ma" in the saying of Allah the Exalted:
While Allah created you and that which you do?" والله خلقكم وما تعملون
[As-Saffat 37:96]
is a relative pronoun. What is the meaning?

The Shaykh : The meaning is: "And He created that which you worship," meaning these idols. He establishes the argument against them that they are created, and a created thing cannot be worshipped.
