Translation

That is Allah, your Lord, Creator of all things; there is no deity except Him, so how are you deluded?

Verse interpretation (Tafsir)

That Allah who graciously gave you His favours is the Creator of everything, so there is no creator besides Him. There is no true god besides Him. So how do you turn away from His worship towards worshipping others who do not possess any benefit or harm?
