His statement: إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ رَبِّي وَرَبُّكُمْ فَاعْبُدُوهُ ("Indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him"). He says: Indeed, Allah, who has the right over us that He alone be acknowledged as deity and that obedience be devoted purely to Him, is my Lord and your Lord together; so worship Him alone, and do not assign Him any partner in His worship, for that is not correct and it is not fitting that anything other than He be worshipped.
His statement: هَذَا صِرَاطٌ مُسْتَقِيمٌ ("This is a straight path"). He says: This which I have commanded you to do — namely the fearing of Allah and obedience to me, and the assigning of divinity to Allah alone — that is the straight path, and that is the religion of Allah which He accepts from none of His servants other than it.
