Translation

So direct your face [i.e., self] toward the religion, inclining to truth. [Adhere to] the fiṭrah1 of Allāh upon which He has created [all] people. No change should there be in the creation of Allāh.2 That is the correct religion, but most of the people do not know.
Footnotes
1 The natural inborn inclination of man to worship his Creator prior to the corruption of his nature by external influences. Thus, Islāmic monotheism is described as the religion of fiṭrah - that of the inherent nature of mankind.
2 i.e., let people remain true to their fiṭrah within the religion of Islām.

Tafsir

So set your purpose, O Muhammad may peace and salutation be upon him, for religion, as a haneef, as one inclining to it - in other words, devote your religion, you and whoever follows you, purely to God - a nature given by God, upon which He originated mankind, and this [nature] is His religion: in other words, adhere to it. There is no changing God's creation, His religion, that is to say, do not change it by becoming idolaters. That is the upright religion, the belief in God's Oneness, but most people, namely, the Meccan disbelievers, do not know, [anything of] God's Oneness -
