Ayah: 38

وَٱتَّبَعۡتُ مِلَّةَ ءَابَآءِيٓ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ وَإِسۡحَٰقَ وَيَعۡقُوبَۚ مَا كَانَ لَنَآ أَن نُّشۡرِكَ بِٱللَّهِ مِن شَيۡءٖۚ ذَٰلِكَ مِن فَضۡلِ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيۡنَا وَعَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا يَشۡكُرُونَ

38.And I follow (Islam) the faith of my fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. It is not proper for us to associate anything with Allāh11. This is of Allah’s Favor upon us and on mankind12, but most people do not give thanks13.

11. Here is an explanation of the reason behind this great favour: by way of calling them to Islamic Monotheism.
12. The favour of guidance to worshipping none but Almighty Allāh without associating any partners with Him in worship.
13. That is, they are heedless of this great favour and do not believe and worship only Allāh and Him Alone.
