belongs to Him whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earthلَّهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الأَرْضِ
who possesses what he can intercede with Him except by His permission?مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهُ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ
He knows what between their hands and what is behind themيَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيْهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ
and not they encompass of anything of His knowledge except of what He willsوَلَا يُحِيْطُوْنَ بِشَيْءٍ مِّنْ عِلْمِهِ إِلَّا بِمَا شَآءَ
His throne extends to the heavens and the earthوَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ

that we worship not except Allah (SWT) and we do not associate anything with Himأَلَّا نَعْبُدَ إِلَّا اللهَ وَلَا نُشْرِكَ بِهِ شَيْئًا
and not some of us take others as lords from besides Allah (SWT)وَلَا يَتَّخِذَ بَعْضُنَا بَعْضًا أَرْبَابًا مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللهِ
3-64then if they turn away then say, “bear witness that we are those who submit (Muslims)”فَإِنْ تَوَلَّوا فَقُوْلُوا اشْهَدُوا بِأَنَّا مُسْلِمُوْنَ
