Quran 2:163 Tafsir Al-Jalalayn
When they asked him Muhammad (s) to describe his Lord the following was revealed Your God the One deserving of your worship is One God without any equal in either essence or attribute; there is no god except Him He is the Compassionate the Merciful.
Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
Your Allah is One Ilah; there is no Ilah but Him, AL-Rahman and AL-Rahim
Quran 2:163 Tafsir Ibn Kathir
In this Ayah, Allah mentions that He is the only deity, and that He has no partners or equals.
He is Allah, the One and Only, the Sustainer, and there is no deity worthy of worship except Him.
He is the Most Gracious ـ Ar-Rahman, the Most Merciful ـ Ar-Rahim.
We explained the meanings of these two Names in the beginning of Surat Al-Fatihah.
Shahr bin Hawshab reported that Asma' bint Yazid bin As-Sakan narrated that Allah's Messenger ﷺ said:
«اسْمُ اللهِ الْأَعْظَمُ فِي هَاتَيْنِ الآيَتَيْنِ
( Allah's Greatest Name is contained in these two Ayat ):
وَإِلَـهُكُمْ إِلَـهٌ وَحِدٌ لاَّ إِلَـهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ الرَّحْمَـنُ الرَّحِيمُ
( And your Ilah (God ) is One Ilah ( God ـ Allah ), La ilaha illa Huwa ( there is none who has the right to be worshipped but He ), the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.) and:
الم - ذَلِكَ الْكِتَابُ لاَ رَيْبَ فِيهِ هُدًى لِّلْمُتَّقِينَ
( Alif-Lam-Mim.
Allah! La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He ), Al-Haiyul-Qaiyum ( the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists ).) ( 3:1, 2 )"
Then Allah mentions some of the proof that He is alone as the deity, that He is the One who created the heavens and the earth and all of the various creatures between them, all of which testify to His Oneness.

Allah said:
Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs
Allah then declares His Oneness because the unbelievers denied this divine Oneness, saying: ( Your God is one God ) without son or partner; ( there is no God save Him, the Beneficent ) the Tender, ( the Merciful ) the Compassionate.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And your Ilah (God) is One Ilah (God - Allah), La ilaha illa Huwa (there is none who has the right to be worshipped but He), the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
We try our best to translate, keeping in mind the Italian saying: "Traduttore, traditore", which means: "Translation is a betrayal of the original text".
