Surah al-Ikhlas.
0:18
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
0:21
“Say: He is Allah, the One!” (112:1)
0:23
Allah is the Eternal Refuge.
0:26
“He begetteth not nor was begotten.” (112:3)
0:28
“And there is none comparable unto Him.” (112:4)

It is mentioned that the polytheists asked the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, about the lineage of the Lord of Might.
0:40
So Allah revealed this surah as an answer to them.
0:44
Say, O Muhammad, to these people who ask about the lineage of your Lord, His attributes, and His creation:
0:51
The Lord about whom you have asked me,
0:54
Is Allah, to whom belongs the worship of all things.
0:57
Worship is not appropriate for any but Him.
1:00
And it is not fitting for anything other than Him.
1:02
He is the Worshipped One, to whom alone worship is due.
1:06
The Master to whom all turn for their needs.
1:09
He above whom there is no one.
1:11
He is not perishable.
1:13
For everything that begets is perishable and subject to passing away.
1:17
And He is not a created being that did not exist and then came into being.
1:21
For everything born only exists after having not existed.
1:26
And it came into being after it was non-existent.
1:29
But His remembrance is eternal and has always been.
1:33
And He is everlasting, having no beginning.
1:36
He does not cease to be, nor does He perish.
1:38
And He has no likeness and no equal.
