Arabic text

۞ يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ أَنتُمُ ٱلْفُقَرَآءُ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ وَٱللَّهُ هُوَ ٱلْغَنِىُّ ٱلْحَمِيدُ

Translation

O people! You are all beggars (in need) before Allaah (dependant on Him for everything) and (Only) Allaah is Independent (not in need of anyone or anything), Most Worthy of praise.

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

All people are in need of Allah: that is, all people are in need of that Allah who has no need of anyone, because all excellences and perfections are gathered in His Being. Hence He alone is worthy of worship and of being asked for help.
