As for me, my Lord is Allah alone, and I do not associate anyone [38] with Him.

[38] That is, I consider only that Lord as my Owner, Master, and Sovereign. He alone is the Owner of benefit and harm for me, for you, and for everyone. Without His will, neither my own plans can avail me anything, nor can anyone else help or support me.
