The Holy Quran 42:15 — Surah Ash-Shuraa

Arabic text

فَلِذَٰلِكَ فَٱدْعُ ۖ وَٱسْتَقِمْ كَمَآ أُمِرْتَ ۖ وَلَا تَتَّبِعْ أَهْوَآءَهُمْ ۖ وَقُلْ ءَامَنتُ بِمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ مِن كِتَـٰبٍ ۖ وَأُمِرْتُ لِأَعْدِلَ بَيْنَكُمُ ۖ ٱللَّهُ رَبُّنَا وَرَبُّكُمْ ۖ لَنَآ أَعْمَـٰلُنَا وَلَكُمْ أَعْمَـٰلُكُمْ ۖ لَا حُجَّةَ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمُ ۖ ٱللَّهُ يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَنَا ۖ وَإِلَيْهِ ٱلْمَصِيرُ

Translation

This (Deen of Islaam and Qur'aan) is what you should call towards (regardless of what opposition you receive). Be steadfast as you have been commanded, and do not follow their whims (by making the compromises the Kuffaar demand). Say, "I believe in the Book that Allaah has revealed, and I have been commanded to maintain justice between you people. Allaah is our Rabb and your Rabb. Our actions are for us, and yours are for you (none of us shall be questioned about the actions of others). There is no dispute between yourselves and us. (Since you have chosen to do as you please despite hearing the truth, continue on your path without opposing us.) Allaah shall gather us all together (on the Day of Qiyaamah), and to Him shall be our return (when He will judge between us)."

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The command to the Prophet ﷺ to call to the truth: that is, when storms of division and difference over the true religion are rising on every side, your duty is to go on calling people, with unshakeable resolve, to that same religion and law to which Adam, Nuh and all the prophets after them have been calling.
