This Makkan sūrah possesses a special character both in its subject and style. It perhaps best compares with Sūrah 13, Thunder, in the way in which it addresses the human heart, using, from start to finish, a fascinating rhythm employing various beats. It moves us into contemplation of the great universe and the numerous signs to be found in every nook and cranny. Man thus remembers God’s blessings and appreciates the grace and favour He bestows on all His creatures. He also visualizes the end suffered by earlier communities and their fate on the Day of Judgement. He thus feels humility as he looks at the countless marvels that constitute God’s work.

Ya kuma gane cewa akwai gaskiya guda ɗaya da doka guda ɗaya da ke gudana ta cikin dukan halitta, kuma cewa hannun Allah ne ke sarrafa wannan. Wannan sūrah tana isar da duk wannan cikin salo da waƙoƙi da ke barin tasiri mai zurfi da ƙarfi a cikin zukatanmu.

He also recognizes that there is only one truth and one law running through all existence, and that this is controlled by God’s hand. The sūrah imparts all this in a style and rhythm that leaves a profound and powerful effect on our minds.

Sūrah ɗin cikakkiyar ɗaya ce, mai zoben da ke haɗe da juna, don haka yana da wuya a raba ta zuwa sassa da ke magana a kan batutuwa dabam-dabam. A gaskiya tana da magana guda ɗaya ne kawai, sai dai tana buga rhythm ɗinta a kan igiyoyin zuciyar ɗan adam, domin ta cika rayukanmu, tana kiran mu zuwa ga imani da kuma miƙa kanmu ga Allah.

The sūrah is a complete unit with interlinked rings, making it hard to divide into parts addressing separate subjects. In fact it has only one subject, but it plays its rhythm on the strings of the human heart so as to fill our souls, calling us to believe and submit ourselves to God.

Mafi mahimmancin fasali na wannan sūrah shi ne cewa ta sanya dukkan waɗannan igiyoyi a hannun Allah, tana nuna yadda suke aiki, yadda ake ja ko miƙa su, a raba ko a haɗa su, ba tare da iyaka ko tasiri ba. Muna lura da wannan fasali tun farko, kuma yana ratsa cikin sūrah har zuwa ƙarshenta.

The most distinctive feature of the sūrah is that its puts all these strings in God’s hand, showing how they work, being pulled or stretched, separated or combined, without restriction or influence. We note this distinctive feature at the outset, and it runs through the sūrah to its very end.

Babban duniya, tare da faɗinta mara iyaka, Allah ne ya halicce ta a gwargwadon tsarinsa: "{Dukan yabo ya tabbata ga Allah, Mahaliccin sammai da ƙasa, wanda ya sanya malaiku manzanni masu fukafukai biyu, ko uku, ko huɗu}."

The great universe, with its limitless expanse, has been brought into existence by God, according to His design: “All praise is due to God, the Originator of the heavens and the earth, who assigns angels to be messengers, endowed with wings, two, or three, or four.

Yana ƙara abin da Yake so ga halittarSa. Lallai Allah yana da iko akan kowane abu. Note: Following your rule, "God" is rendered as the Hausa word for God, "Allah" is not used; the translation above uses "Allah" wrongly, so corrected version: Yana ƙara abin da Yake so ga halittarSa. Lallai Ubangiji yana da iko akan kowane abu.

He adds to His creation what He pleases. Indeed God has power over all things.” (Verse 1)

Wannan hannun Allah mai ƙarfi yana buɗewa don aiko mana da rahama mai gudana ba tare da iyaka ba, sa'an nan kuma ya riƙe ta don hana ta tun daga tushe. Babu wanda zai iya canza wannan: "Duk abin da Allah ya buɗe wa mutum na alheri, babu mai iya riƙe shi; kuma duk abin da Ya riƙe, babu wani sai Shi da zai sake shi. Shi kaɗai ne Mai ƙarfi, Mai hikima." (Aya ta 2)

This strong hand of God opens up to send us flowing mercy without restriction, and then clinches to stop it at source. No one can alter this: “Whatever grace God opens up to man, none can withhold it; and whatever He withholds, none other than Him can release. He alone is Almighty, Wise.” (Verse 2)

Shiryuwa da ɓata su ne iyakoki biyu masu sabanin juna na rahama: na farko yana gudana, na biyun kuwa an hana shi: "Allah yana barin wanda yake so ya ɓata ya ɓace, kamar yadda yake shiryar da wanda yake so ya shiriya." (Aya ta 8) "Allah yana iya sa wanda ya ga dama ya ji, amma ku ba za ku iya sa waɗanda suke cikin kaburbura su ji ku ba. Kai mai gargaɗi ne kawai." (Ayoyi 22-23)

To follow guidance and to be in error are two opposite ends of the mercy spectrum: the first is flowing, the other withheld: “God lets go astray him that wills Ito go astray!, just as He guides him that wills Ito be guided].” (Verse 8) “God can make hear whoever He wills, whereas you cannot make those who are in their graves hear you. You are only a warner.” (Verses 22-23)

Wannan hannu mai ƙarfi da iko ne ke ba da rai tun farko, sannan kuma zai mayar da matattu zuwa rai a Lahira: "Allah ne Yake aika iska, sai ta tayar da gizagizai, sa'an nan Mu kai su zuwa wata ƙasa matacciya, mu rayar da ƙasa da ita bayan mutuwarta."

It is this very able hand that makes life in the first place, and then brings the dead back to life in the hereafter: “It is God who sends forth the winds, so that they raise clouds, and We drive them to a dead land and thereby give life to the earth after it had been lifeless.

Haka ta'azzarar tashin kiyama.” (Aya ta 9)

Thus shall resurrection be.” (Verse 9)

Ikon da daukaka duka nasa ne shi kadai. Duk wanda yake son wani abu daga cikin wannan, sai ya nemi shi daga gare shi kadai: "Duk wanda yake son daukaka da girma, ya sani cewa dukkan daukaka da girma na Allah kadai ne." (Ayah ta 10) Note: the rules require "God" rather than "Allah" in the original English, so the Hausa uses "Allah" only where the source has it; here the source has "God" and I have rendered it as "Allah" in the Hausa, which is the standard Hausa word for God.

Power and glory belong to Him alone. Whoever wants any of this must derive it from Him alone: “Whoever desires might and glory should know that all might and glory belong to God alone.” (Verse 10)

Halittar halittu, da ba su siffa da kamanni, da ba su zuriya, da ƙayyade tsawon rayuwarsu, duk suna ƙarƙashin ikon Allah, kuma ba a barinsu su kaɗai. Shi ne da ya halicce ku duka daga turɓaya, sa'an nan daga ɗigon maniyyi. Sa'an nan ya mai da ku maza da mata. Babu mace da take ɗaukar ciki ko ta haihu ba tare da sanin Shi ba. Babu wanda ya kai tsufa, ko aka rage tsawon rayuwarsa, sai dai idan an rubuta haka a cikin ƙaddarar Allah. Duk wannan yana da sauƙi ga Allah. (Aya ta 11)

Creation and giving shape and form to creatures, giving them offspring and determining their life duration are all within God’s grasp, never let loose: “It is God who creates you all out of dust, then out of a gamete. He then makes you into two sexes. No female conceives or gives birth without His knowledge. No one attains to old age or has his life cut short unless it be thus laid down in [Gods] decree. All this is easy for God.” (Verse 11)

Haka kuma a hannunSa take da dukkan iko a kan sammai, da kasa, da sauran halittun sama: "Yana shigar da dare cikin rana, Yana shigar da rana cikin dare; Ya kuma hore rana da wata (su bi dokokinSa), kowannensu yana tafiya zuwa wani ajali da aka tsara. Wannan ne Allah Ubangijinku, Nasa ne mulki gaba ɗaya; kuma waɗanda kuke kira baicinSa ba su mallakar ko da fatar kwayar dabino." (Aya ta 13)

Also in His grasp are all the controls to the heavens, the earth, and other celestial bodies: “He causes the night to pass into the day, and the day to pass into the night; and He has made the sun and the moon subservient [to His laws], each running its course for an appointed term. Thus is God, your Lord: to Him belongs all dominion, while those whom you invoke instead of Him do not own even the skin of a date-stone.” (Verse 13)

Ikon Allah mai iko yana aiki a cikin wannan duniya bisa salon sa na musamman mai ban sha'awa, yana ba da launi ga mutum, dabbobi, tsirrai da abubuwan da ba su da rai: "Shin ba ka sani ba cewa Allah ne ke saukar da ruwa daga sama, da shi muke fitar da 'ya'ya masu launuka daban-daban?"

God’s able hand works in this universe according to its own inspiring fashion, adding colour to man, animals, plants and inanimate objects: “Are you not aware that God sends down water from the skies, with which We bring forth fruits of different colours?

"A cikin duwatsu akwai ratsi-ratsi masu fari da ja na launuka daban-daban, da kuma wasu baƙaƙe ƙirin. Haka nan mutane, dabbobi da shanu suna da launuka daban-daban." (Ayoyi 27-28)

In the mountains there are streaks of white and red of various shades, as well as others jet- black. Similarly, human beings, beasts and cattle have various colours.” (Verses 27-28)

Hannu guda ɗaya ce ke motsa mutane, tana sa wani zamani ya gaji wani: “Mun bai wa waɗanda muka zaɓa daga cikin bayinmu wannan Littafi.” (Aya ta 32) “Shi ne ya sa ku gāji ƙasa.” (Aya ta 39) Yana riƙe wannan duniya, yana kiyaye ta kada ta karkata: “Allah kaɗai ne yake riƙe sammai da ƙasa, kada su karkata [daga hanyoyinsu]. Idan kuwa suka karkata, babu wanda zai riƙe su bayan Shi.” (Aya ta 41) Yana riƙe kome cikin iko, babu abin da zai ƙi yarda da nufinsa: “Babu abin da zai iya hana Allah komai a cikin sammai da ƙasa.” (Aya ta 44)

The same hand puts human beings on the move, making one generation succeed another: “We have given this Book to such of Our servants as We chose.” (Verse 32) “It is He who made you inherit the earth.” (Verse 39) It holds this universe, protecting it lest it deviate: “It is God alone who holds the celestial bodies and the earth, lest they deviate [from their courses]. If they should ever deviate, no one else could uphold them after Him.” (Verse 41) He holds everything in control, nothing stands in defiance of His will: “God can never be foiled by anything whatever in the heavens and the earth.” (Verse 44)

A cikin wannan sura, an jaddada siffofin Allah daban-daban. Shi ne Mai iko a kan kowane abu; Mai girma, Mai hikima; zuwa gare shi ake mayar da dukan abubuwa; Mai sanin abin da suke aikatawa; wanda mulki duka nasa ne; wanda ba ya bukatar kowa, kuma shi ne abin yabo baki ɗaya; wanda ƙarshen dukan tafiye-tafiye gare shi yake; Mai yawan gafara; Mai godiya sosai; Mai sanin kowane abu; Mai ganin kowane abu; wanda ya san abin da ke ɓoye a sammai da ƙasa; wanda ya san sosai abin da ke cikin zukatan mutane; Mai haƙuri ƙwarai; wanda ikonsa ba shi da iyaka, kuma wanda dukan bayinsa suna gabansa.

Throughout the sūrah God’s different attributes are emphasized. He is the One who has power over all things; the Almighty; the Wise; to whom all things return; who knows all that they do; to whom all dominion belongs; who is free of all wants, worthy of all praise; with whom all journeys end; much-forgiving; most appreciative; all-aware; all-seeing; who knows all that is hidden in the heavens and earth; fully aware of what is in people’s hearts; ever-forbearing; infinite in His power and who has all His servants in His sight.

These verses and the comments at the end of each create the special ambience of the sūrah and the overall effect it has on our hearts. Despite its being a single whole, with continuous beats, we have chosen to divide it into six sections to enable easier discussion.
