surah Al Alaq aya 19 , English translation of the meaning Ayah.
﴿كَلَّا لَا تُطِعْهُ وَاسْجُدْ وَاقْتَرِب ۩﴾
[ العلق: 19]
96:19 No! Do not obey him. But prostrate and draw near [to Allah].
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishIt is not as this oppressor thinks: that he can cause any harm to you.
So do not follow him in command or prohibition; rather, prostrate to Allah and draw closer to Him through acts of obedience, because that is how you can draw closer to Him.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
Nay! (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him))! Do not obey him (Abu Jahl). Fall prostrate and draw near to Allah!
