to single out Allah in worship, for He created neither jinn nor humankind except for that very purpose.

Benefits derived from the verse:

1. The duty upon both classes of beings—jinn and humans—to devote all worship exclusively to Allah.
2. A statement of the wisdom underlying the creation of jinn and humankind.
3. Confirmation that only the Creator is entitled to worship, whereas anything that cannot create is not; this is a rebuttal of the idol-worshippers.
4. An affirmation of Allah’s absolute self-sufficiency and the creatures’ dependence upon Him, for He is the Creator and they are created.
5. Proof that all of Allah’s actions are imbued with wisdom.
