* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn

{ لَكُمْ دِينُكُمْ وَلِيَ دِينِ }

You have your religion idolatry and I have a religion’ Islam this was revealed before he was commanded to wage war against the idolaters all seven Qur’ānic readers omit the yā’ of the genitive possessive construction in wa-liya dīni whether with a pause or without; Ya‘qūb however retains it in both cases.
