Surah 6 Al-An'am, Ayat 162-163
قُلۡ اِنَّ صَلَاتِىۡ وَنُسُكِىۡ وَ مَحۡيَاىَ وَمَمَاتِىۡ لِلّٰهِ رَبِّ الۡعٰلَمِيۡنَۙ
﴿6:162﴾
لَا شَرِيۡكَ لَهٗۚ وَبِذٰلِكَ اُمِرۡتُ وَاَنَا اَوَّلُ الۡمُسۡلِمِيۡنَ
﴿6:163﴾
(6:162) Say: 'Surely my Prayer, all my acts of worship, 143 and
my living and my dying are for Allah alone, the Lord of the whole universe.
(6:163) He has no associate. Thus have I been bidden, and I am the foremost
of those who submit themselves (to Allah).`
