Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: How do you reconcile Allah's saying,
And, [moreover], this is My path, which is straight, so follow it; and do not follow [other] waysوَأَنَّ هَٰذَا صِرَاطِي مُسْتَقِيمًا فَاتَّبِعُوهُ وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا السُّبُلَ
[Al-An'am 6:153]
, with His saying,
And those who strive for Us - We will surely guide them to Our waysوَالَّذِينَ جَاهَدُوا فِينَا لَنَهْدِيَنَّهُمْ سُبُلَنَا
[Al-'Ankabut 29:69]
?

Answer:
Yes, the ways return to a single path; they return to a single path. The commands and prohibitions return to a single path, which is the sincerity of worship for Allah, Mighty and Majestic. Yes.
