Commentary
Say, "Indeed, my prayer, my rites, my worship, and my drawing near are all for Allah. It was said: and my sacrifice. He combined between prayer and sacrifice as in His saying, 'So pray to your Lord and sacrifice.' It was said: my prayer and my pilgrimage are from the rites of pilgrimage. And my life and my death are for Allah, Lord of the worlds, exclusively for His face. And with that, I was commanded to be sincere, and I am the first of the Muslims, because the Islam of every previous prophet is for the Islam of his nation."
