Sura 49
Aya 17
17
يَمُنّونَ عَلَيكَ أَن أَسلَموا ۖ قُل لا تَمُنّوا عَلَيَّ إِسلامَكُم ۖ بَلِ اللَّهُ يَمُنُّ عَلَيكُم أَن هَداكُم لِلإيمانِ إِن كُنتُم صادِقينَ

Ali Unal

They impress it on you as their favor to you that they have submitted (to the rule of Islam and thereby put you under an obligation to them). Say: “Do not count your being Muslims as a favor to me (nor seek to put me under an obligation. The Religion does not belong to me, but to God only.) It is indeed God Who has conferred a favor upon you inasmuch as He has shown you the way to faith – if you are truthful (in your profession of being Muslims, those who have submitted to God).”
