e, and
he was not of the polytheists.

Y: Say: "Truly, my prayer and my service of sacrifice, my life and my
death, are (all) for Allah, the Cherisher of the Worlds:"

P: Say: Lo! my worship and my sacrifice and my living and my dying are
for Allah, Lord of the Worlds.

S: Say. Surely my prayer and my sacrifice and my life and my death are
(all) for Allah, the Lord of the worlds;

006.163
Y: No partner hath He: this am I commanded, and I am the first of those
who bow to His will.

P: He hath no partner. This am I commanded, and I am first of those who
surrender (unto Him).

S: No associate has He; and this am I commanded, and I am the first of
those who submit.

006.164
Y: Say: "Shall I seek for (my) Cherisher other than Allah, when He is
the Cherisher of all things (that exist)? Every soul draws the meed of
its acts on none but itself: no bearer of burdens can bear of burdens
can bear the burden of another. Your goal in the end is towards Allah:
He will tell you the truth of the things wherein ye disputed."

P: Say: Shall I seek another than Allah for Lord, when He is Lord of all
things? Each soul earneth only on its own account, nor doth any laden
bear another's load. Then unto your Lord is your return and He will
tell you that wherein ye differed.

S: Say: What! shall I seek a Lord other than Allah? And He is the Lord
of all things; and no soul earns (evil) but against itself, and no
bearer of burden shall bear the burden of another; then to your Lord is
your return, so He will inform you of that in which you differed.

006.165
Y: It is He Who hath made you (His) agents, inheritors of the earth: He
hath raised you in ranks, some above others: that He may try you in the
gifts He hath given you: for thy Lord is quick in punishment: yet He is
indeed Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

P: He it is Who hath placed you as viceroys of the earth and hath
exalted some of you in rank above others, that He may try you by (the
test of) that which He hath given you. Lo! Thy Lord is swift in
prosecution, and Lo! He verily is Forgiving, Merciful.

S: And He it is Who has made you successors in the land and raised some
of you above others by (various) grades, that He might try you by what
He has given you; surely your Lord is quick to requite (evil), and He
is most surely the Forgiving, the Merciful.
