yāayyuhā l-nāsu in kuntum fī shakkin min dīnī falā aʿbudu alladhīna taʿbudūna min dūni l-lahi walākin aʿbudu l-laha alladhī yatawaffākum wa-umir`tu an akūna mina l-mu`minīna
The Aya
says:
Say O
people: “If you were in doubt of my religion then I do not worship what you
worship short of Allah, but instead I worship Allah who takes you. And I was ordered to be amongst the faithful”
My
personal note:
The Aya
reminds the people that only Allah is worthy of worship and worthy for us to
humble ourselves to. It also reminds us
that Allah is the one that takes us back just as He is the one that created us.

lack of certainty. This could be related to the concrete because the doubt is
the result of dealing with interwoven issues or that it interlinks too many
things together which end up in confusion and doubt. SHAKKIN, in this context
is confusion and doubt.
