( قُلْ ) (Say): Say, O’ Mohammad (saws).
( إِنَّنِي هَدَانِي رَبِّي) (“Indeed, my Lord has guided me): Allah (swt) has shown him (saws) the straight path.
( إِلَىٰ صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ ) (to a straight path): It is the path of Allah (swt) leading to the end-goal. The straight path is the shortest distance between two points; between the worldly life and the Hereafter; between this life and Paradise. This is the path of all the Prophets (PBUT).
( دِينًا قِيَمًا) (a correct religion): A religion that came to correct people’s course of life through instructing them how to be of great morals and values. The Prophet (saws) said:
“I was sent to perfect good character.”[1]
Such as honesty, integrity, altruism, love, support, generosity, and gallantry. At the same time, he (saws) was sent to reject bad morals.
( مِّلَّةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَنِيفًا) (the way of Abraham, inclining toward truth): Inclining away from the path of polytheism. Ibrahim (PBUH) is the grandfather of the Prophet Mohammad (saws) and the father of Prophets (PBUT). The Jews believed that Ibrahim (PBUH) was a Jew.
