* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn


{ وَأَنَّ هَـٰذَا صِرَاطِي مُسْتَقِيماً فَٱتَّبِعُوهُ وَلاَ تَتَّبِعُواْ ٱلسُّبُلَ فَتَفَرَّقَ بِكُمْ عَن سَبِيلِهِ ذٰلِكُمْ وَصَّاكُمْ بِهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُونَ }

And that read anna with lām of li-anna ‘because’ being implied or inna as beginning a new sentence this that I have charged you with is My straight path mustaqīman ‘straight’ is a circumstantial qualifier so follow it; and do not follow other ways paths opposed to it lest it separate you tafarraqa one of the two letters tā’ of the original tatafarraqa has been omitted make you incline away from His way His religion. This is what He has ordained for you that perhaps you will be God-fearing’.
