From What Worship Really Means

وَقَالَ تَعَالَى وَالَّذِينَ لَا يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ وَلَا يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَلَا يَزْنُونَ

آخَرَ other

An adjective 'other/another' describing 'a god', matching it in being indefinite and in the accusative (object) form. Arabic adjectives follow their noun and agree with it in definiteness and case, which is why this is indefinite and object-formed. It pins the prohibition to any 'other' god besides the One.
