Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
And as one who invites to Allâh [Islâmic Monotheism, i.e. to worship none but Allâh (Alone)] by His Leave, and as a lamp spreading light (through your instructions from the Qur’ân and the Sunnah - the legal ways of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم).

46. 1. Just as darkness is dispelled by a lamp, in the same way, through you ﷺ, the darkness of disbelief and polytheism will be removed. Furthermore, whoever wishes to attain perfection and felicity by acquiring light from this lamp, can do so. This is because this lamp will remain illuminated until the Day of Judgment.
