Kingdom is only Allah’s - Allah’s knowledge comprehends every thing.
56. "Say: ' I am forbidden to worship those whom you call besides Allah Say: 'I do not follow your low desires, for then indeed I should have gone astray and I will not be of the (rightly) guided."
The undue desires, from anybody they are issued, should be explicitly responded with a negative answer.

Acquaintance from infidelity is a part of Islam. Polytheistic belief is the root of sensual desires.
Thus, a preacher of the Faith ought not follow to quench the people's desires, but he should act for the sake and pleasure of Allah. The verse says:
"Say: ' I am forbidden to worship those whom you call besides Allah Say: 'I do not follow your low desires, for then indeed I should have gone astray and I will not be of the (rightly) guided."
