(Whosoever surrendereth his purpose to Allah) whoever makes his religion and works sincere to Allah (while doing good) believes sincerely that there is only one true God, (he verily hath grasped the firm hand hold) which will never split up, through " there is no deity except Allah ". (Unto Allah belongeth the sequel of all things) the consequence of things, the states in which they die, will return to Him in the Hereafter.
