0:24 “Thee (alone) we worship; Thee (alone) we ask for help.” (1:5)
0:28 Its meaning is:
0:30 We worship none but You, O Allah.

0:44 "So worship Him and rely upon Him."
0:47 “Say: He is the Beneficent. In Him we believe and in Him we put our trust. And ye will soon know who it is that is in error manifest.” (67:29)
0:52 “Lord of the East and the West; there is no Allah save Him; so choose thou Him alone for thy defender -” (73:9)
