To them on the day of Al-Ghadir, they denied Him.
He is the Eternal, the Ancient, the Singular in truth,
And there is nothing other than Him, so worship Him.
And were it not for the Name, the Named would not be known,
And were it not for His name, they would not have unified Him.
And everyone is saying: "Allah is my Lord,"
Yet if you asked them, they do not know Him.
This verse indicates the meaning of His, the Almighty's, saying: ["And if you asked them, 'Who created the heavens and the earth and subjected the sun and the moon?' they would surely say, 'Allah.' Then how are they deluded?"] 1 meaning that they know an exoteric (zahir) [aspect] of the worldly life, and they, of the Hereafter, are heedless.
Five things by which Allah is uniquely distinguished,
So that the creation may know who is Allah, the Self-Sufficient Master (al-Samad).
