* تفسير Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs

{ ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَاكَ عَلَىٰ شَرِيعَةٍ مِّنَ ٱلأَمْرِ فَٱتَّبِعْهَا وَلاَ تَتَّبِعْ أَهْوَآءَ ٱلَّذِينَ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ }

(And now have We set thee) We have chosen you ((O Muhammad) on a clear road of (Our) commandment) on a clear wont and way in relation to My command and obedience; (so follow it) hold fast to them and act upon them; it is also said that this means: We have honoured you with Islam and have commanded you to call mankind to it, (and follow not the whims of those) the religion of those (who know not) Allah's divine Oneness, i.e. the Jews, Christians and idolaters.
