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.
