Quote:
{6:161} Say, "Indeed, my Lord has guided me to a straight path - a correct religion - the way of Abraham, inclining toward truth. And he was not among those who associated others with God."

I suggest,
{6:161} Say, "Verily, my Lord has guided me to a straight path - a correct religion - the doctrine of Abraham, inclining toward truth. And he was not of those associating [others with God in worship]."

Quote:
{6:162} Say, "Indeed, my prayer, my rites of sacrifice, my living and my dying are for God, Lord of the worlds.

I suggest,
{6:162} Say, "Verily, my prayer, my rites, my lifetime and my dying are for God, Lord of the worlds."

Quote:
{6:163} No partner has He. And this I have been commanded, and I am the first [among you] of the Muslims."

I suggest,
{6:163} "No partner has He. And of that I have been commanded, and I am the first [among you] of the Muslims (submitters to God only)."
