The Commentaries
The 2 imam Jalalain interpreted this verse as written above and he interpreted refuge as aplace for protection.
Muhammad Asad interpreted this verse as
"to convey to the world whatever has been revealed to you".
He said that the statement
'nothing can change God's Words',
according to Razi and Abu Muslim al-Isfahani, this sentence means that, there is no such thing as "Doctrine of Abrogation" which is better known in Arabic as the term "Nasich wal Mansuch". [1]
[1] There does not exist a single Tradition or narration of any kind, that Prophet Muhammad ever declared a verse of the Quran have been "abrogated" or have been replaced by another verse. This doctrine was formulated by some commentators who were unable to reconcile one verse with another. This "Doctrine of Abrogation" has no basis in historical fact, and must be rejected.
Abdullah Yusuf Ali, briefly interpreted this verseas to recite and teach the revelation of the Quran.None can change God's commands, Decrees and Orders.And you cannot find as protection other than HIM.
Prof Mahmud Yunus interpreted the meaning of this verse as "Read! O Muhammad whatever that has been revealed to you, that is your God's Book. None canchange HIS words and you will never find any protection other than HIM.
