Surat Faatir · The Originator
Qur'an 35:3
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ ٱذْكُرُوا۟ نِعْمَتَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ ۚ هَلْ مِنْ خَـٰلِقٍ غَيْرُ ٱللَّهِ يَرْزُقُكُم مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ فَأَنَّىٰ تُؤْفَكُونَ
“O mankind, remember the favor of Allāh upon you. Is there any creator other than Allāh who provides for you from the heaven and earth? There is no deity except Him, so how are you deluded?”
Faatir 35:3 · Saheeh International
Svenska · Bernström
Människor! Minns Guds välgärningar mot er! Finns det en annan skapare än Gud, som förser er [med det] i himlen och på jorden som ni behöver för er försörjning? Nej, det finns ingen gud utom Han; hur förvirrade är inte era begrepp!
Recited by Mishary Alafasy. Plays on through the surah.
The Evidence of Tawhid
Allah shows His servants that they should worship Him Alone, for just as He is Independent in His power of creation and provision, so He should be worshipped Alone with no partners or associates such as idols and false gods. So Allah says:
لاَ إِلَـهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ فَأَنَّى تُؤْفَكُونَ
(La ilaha illa Huwa. How then are you turning away (from Him)) meaning, `how can you turn away from Him after this has been made clear and this proof has been made obvious, but you still worship idols and false gods' And Allah knows best.
