My Lord and Your Lord
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ رَبِّي وَرَبُّكُمۡ فَٱعۡبُدُوهُۚ هَٰذَا صِرَٰطࣱ مُّسۡتَقِيمࣱ ٦٤
Lo! Allah, He is my Lord and your Lord. So worship Him. This is a right path.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
“Indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. This is a straight path.”
Insight
According to Elmalılı, this is what Jesus said: recognise Him alone as worthy of worship; this is the one straight path.
Reflect
Remember Jesus’ call to tawhid.
