Transliteration:( Illal lazee fataranee fa innahoo sa yahdeen )
"Except Him Who created me, and He will surely guide me [43]."
Hazrat Ibrahim (peace be upon him) made it clear that only Allah, Who created him, is worthy of worship and is continuously guiding him. According to Tafseer Roohul Bayaan, the letter “Seen” in the word for guidance indicates both emphasis and present continuity, meaning Allah is always guiding him.
This proves that Prophets are never without guidance, not even for a moment. Since he openly denounced false gods and affirmed exclusive devotion to Allah, any doubt about his being rightly guided is baseless.
The tafsir of Surah Zukhruf verse 27 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Zukhruf ayat 26 which provides the complete commentary from verse 26 through 35.
(43:27) except the One Who created me; and, behold, it is He Who will direct me to the Right Way.”[25]
25. In these words not only did the Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him) state his creed but also gave the argument for it. The reason for not having any connection with the other deities is that they neither have created nor they give right guidance in any matter, nor they can; and the reason for having a connection only with Allah Almighty is that He alone is the Creator and He alone gives, and can give the right guidance to mankind.
