The Holy Quran 41:6 — Surah Fussilat

Arabic text

قُلْ إِنَّمَآ أَنَا۠ بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ يُوحَىٰٓ إِلَىَّ أَنَّمَآ إِلَـٰهُكُمْ إِلَـٰهٌ وَٰحِدٌ فَٱسْتَقِيمُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهِ وَٱسْتَغْفِرُوهُ ۗ وَوَيْلٌ لِّلْمُشْرِكِينَ

Translation

Say (to them, O Rasulullaah), "(I cannot force you to accept because) I am just a human being like you. Revelation has been sent to me that your Ilaah is only One. So remain devoted to Him and seek forgiveness from Him. Destruction (Jahannam) be to the Mushrikeen..."

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani
