Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The first letter in this episode is one that reached the program from Syria, from the Idlib Governorate, Ma'arrat al-Nu'man, and its sender is the brother Khalid Abdul-Hayy al-Ahmad. Brother Khalid, your handwriting is that of a complete beginner. I had intended to pass over the letter because of the poor quality of its handwriting, but I was able to read a phrase in which you say that every day I perform the worship of Allah and His Messenger.
(1) In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. (2) [All] praise is [due] to Allah, Lord of the worlds -بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ

And may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. The questioner’s statement, “the worship of Allah and His Messenger,” is a great error, but perhaps it was a slip of the tongue, and you meant to say

[Al-Ma'idah 5:92]

[Al-Ma'idah 5:92]
the Messenger.
And obey Allah and obeyوَأَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُوا
[Al-Ma'idah 5:92]
. If you are believers. All obedience is for Allah and for the Messenger, but as for worship, it is not for anyone but Allah the Mighty and Majestic. So it is obligatory for him to say, “I worship Allah alone, and nothing

Answer:
diverts me from Him, for worship is for Allah, and no one shares in it with Him. Not the angels, not the messengers, not the first or the second, and not anyone else. True worship. Say, “For Allah is
Worship Allah and associate nothing withوَاعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وَلَا تُشْرِكُوا بِهِ
[An-Nisa 4:36]
everything, good or evil.” Yes.
