Outline:
فَإِذَا قِيلَ لَكَ: مَا الْأُصُولُ الْثَّلَاثَةُ الْتِّي يَجِبُ عَلَى
الْإِنْسَانِ مَعْرِفَتُهَا؟
فَقُلْ: مَعْرِفَةُ الْعَبْدِ رَبَّهُ
، وَدِينِهُ، وَنَبِيَّهُ مُحَمَّدًا .
فَإِذَا قِيلَ لَكَ:مَنْ رَبُّكَ؟ فَقُلْ: رَبِّيَ الْلَّهُ
الَّذِي رَبَّانِي وَرَبَّى جَمِيعَ الْعَالَمِينَ بِنِعَمِهِ،
وَهُوَ مَعْبُودِي لَيْسَ لِي مَعْبُودٌ سِوَاهُ؛
وَالْدَّلِيلُ قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى:
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ

فَإِذَا قِيلَ لَكَ: مَا الْأُصُولُ الْثَّلَاثَةُ الْتِّي يَجِبُ عَلَى\
الْإِنْسَانِ مَعْرِفَتُهَا؟
So if it is said to you: What are the three principles which a person must know?
فَقُلْ: مَعْرِفَةُ الْعَبْدِ رَبَّهُ، وَدِينِهُ، وَنَبِيَّهُ مُحَمَّدً
then say the servants knowledge of His Lord

-Why he presented the issue in Q & A format?
-He also started with a general statement on the three principles then went specific.

-So if it is said to youفَإِذَا قِيلَ لَكَ:
Why he left out the questioner?

-لثَّلاثَةُ THE three

التِّي يَجِبُ which a person "must" know

مَعْرِفَتُهَا
-The method to attain ma3rifah he skipped.
-Ma3rifah includes belief and action.
-Ma3rifah means knowing after ignorance so the word ma3rifah can be used to describe human knowledge not Allah's SWT
-ma3rifah is "usually" in the context of matters vilifed in the koran - not always.

فَقُلْ : مَعْرِفَةُ العَبْدِ رَبَّهُ
-Firm knowledge and belief
-Types of servants

رَبَّهُ
Are we going to be tested about lordship (Rububiyyah) and not worship (Uluhiyyah) in the grave?

وَدِينِهُ ، وَنَبِيَّهُ مُحَمَّدًا
Religion and his messenger

فَإِذَا قِيلَ لَكَ : مَنْ رَبُّكَ
So if it is said to you: 'Who is your Lord?' Then say: 'My Lord is Allaah,
-(ف is f of explanation الفصيحة
-Don't disdain the belief in this simple question
-Definition of Rab
-Elaborating more on the issue of 'Are we going to be tested about lordship (Rububiyyah) and not worship (Uluhiyyah) in the grave?'
2 ways scholars included Uluhiyyah under Rubuiyyah

فَقُلْ : رَبِّيَ اللَّهُ الَّذِي رَبَّانِي وَرَبَّى جَمِيعَ العَالَمِينَ بِنِعَمِهِ
SAY: 'My Lord is Allaah, who has nurtured me and all of creation with His favors and blessings,

وَهُوَ مَعْبُودِي
He is the one whom I worship!
After establishing the foundation of Rubuiyyah in the question he mentioned Uluhiyyah to show it's included in the question.

لَيْسَ لِي مَعْبُودٌ سِوَاهُ
and there is no other whom I worship besides Him
-He used nafy and ithbaat (affirming only lord and denying all others besides him)
