You ˹alone˺ we worship and You ˹alone˺ we ask for help.
You alone do we worship, and Your aid alone we seek.
You (Alone) we worship, and you (Alone) we ask for help (for each and everything).
You we worship, and You we ask for help from.) ((He alone is) the Lord of the east and the west; La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He). (You we worship, and You we ask for help from). (You we worship, and You we ask for help from).
If we truly understand verses before this verse, we will automatically come to conclusion which is mentioned in this ayat. I.e we worship you(Allah). Pay attention to this ayat, it is not like command saying worship Allah. Rather we are saying here by our own that we worship Allah. When we say we only worship Allah. It is big commitment. We can't do it by our own. So next we are saying in this ayat that we need your help Allah.
There are dozens of words for help in arabic. So what is unique in "Istia'ana" ? What is the wisdom behind using this word here ? Lets know this. "Istia'ana" means you are doing some work and trying hard for the same but you can not finish that on your own so you need someone else help. For E.g: You were driving and tire got punctured. You took spare tire from deck and wanted to lift car so to fit tire. But you can't lift car on your own so you call out someone to help. This kind of help is called "Istia'ana".
So lazy people can not asked for "Istia'ana" as it requires you to first try and put efforts then ask for other's help. It is principal of Allah that you first try then Allah will help. People want Allah's help but don't want to do anything on their own. We have example of companions of Muhammad SAW. They went into battlefield then angels came to help.
And other people think what we got is all because of us. For e.g some says I got job because I was talented. But it is never the case. whatever we acheive, its only because Allah helps.
