Chapter 6, Page 150, Juz 8

161. Say, ‘My Lord has guided me to a straight path, an upright religion, the faith of Abraham, a man of pure faith. He was not a polytheist.’ 162. Say, ‘My prayers and sacrifice, my life and death, are all for God, Lord of all the Worlds; 163. He has no partner. This is what I am commanded, and I am the first to devote myself to Him.’ 164. Say, ‘Should I seek a Lord other than God, when He is the Lord of all things?’ Each soul is responsible for its own actions; no soul will bear the burden of another. You will all return to your Lord in the end, and He will tell you the truth about your differences. 165. It is He who made you successors on the earth and raises some of you above others in rank, to test you through what He gives you. [Prophet], your Lord is swift in punishment, yet He is most forgiving and merciful.

- M.A.S. Abdel Haleem
