The Holy Quran 36:22 — Surah Ya-Sin

Arabic text

وَمَا لِىَ لَآ أَعْبُدُ ٱلَّذِى فَطَرَنِى وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ

Translation

"Why should I not worship the One Who has created me, and to Whom you all shall return?" (We have every reason to worship Allaah and would be foolish not to.)

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The support and admonition of a righteous man: he said this applying it to himself, while letting others hear it. That is, what has happened to you, after all, that you do not serve the One who created you? that is, do not think that, having created [you], He has left [you] free and now has no concern with you. No — after death all must return to Him.
