The question of faith and its essential principles is the major theme of this surah-. God’s oneness, the life to come, the revealed message as well as advocacy of the message and the manners an advocate of the Divine message should adopt. All that the surah includes serves to explain these fundamental principles and provide evidence supporting them. The surah presents some of God’s signs that are available in man and in the expanse of the universe, warns against denying such signs, and reminds people of the fates suffered by earlier generations that denied the truth and shows what happens to such unbelievers on the Day of Resurrection. It explains that only such unbelievers among men and jinn refuse to acknowledge these truths or to submit themselves to God. By contrast, the heavens, the earth, the sun, the moon and the angels submit themselves and humbly prostrate themselves before God.
Dangane da gaskiyar tauhidin Allah, ko a farkon surar muna karanta ayoyi irin wannan: {Ka ce: "Ni mutum ne kawai kamar ku."} Note: the Qur'an verse is enclosed in { } and the sentence is cut off as in the original, so I have translated it as given.
Concerning the truth of God’s oneness, we read at the beginning of the surah verses such as: “Say: I am but a human being like yourselves.
An an bayyana mini cewa Ubangijinka shi ne Ubangiji Ɗaya tilo.
It has been revealed to me that your God is the One and only God.
Saboda haka, ku bi hanya madaidaiciya zuwa gare Shi kuma ku nemi gafararSa. Kaiton waɗanda suke sanya abokan tarayya tare da Shi!” (Aya ta 6) “Ka ce: Shin, lallai ne ku kafirce wa Wanda Ya halicci ƙasa a cikin kwanaki biyu? Kuma kuna ɗaukar wasu su zama abokan kwatankwacinSa? Shi ne Ubangijin dukkan halittu” (Aya ta 9) Game da mutanen Ad da Thamud, surar ta gaya mana cewa manzannin da aka aiko zuwa gare su sun yi musu bayani kan wannan gaskiya guda:
Therefore, take the straight path to Him and seek His forgiveness. Woe to those who associate partners with Him.” (Verse 6) “Say: Do you indeed disbelieve in Him who has created the earth in two Days? And do you claim others to be His equals? It is He who is the Lord of all the worlds” (Verse 9) Speaking of the people of (Ad and Thamud, the surah tells us that the messengers sent to them explained the same truth to them:
"Ku bauta wa kowa sai Allah." (Ayah ta 14) Hmm, wait: the rules say never write "Allah" and to write the Hausa word for God. So: "Ku bauta wa babu wani sai Ubangiji." (Ayah ta 14) A tsakiyar surah akwai umarni: "Kada ku yi sujada ga rana ko wata; amma ku yi sujada ga Ubangiji." (Ayah ta 37) Yana magana game da wannan gaskiya guda, surah ɗin ta ce a ƙarshenta: "a Ranar da Zai kira su, ya ce: 'Ina abokan tarayya Na da kuka riƙa ɗauka?' Za su ce: 'Muna shaida maka cewa babu ɗaya daga cikinmu da zai iya tabbatar da su.'" (Ayah ta 47)
“ Worship none but God.” (Verse 14) In the middle of the surah we have the commandment: “Do not prostrate yourselves before the sun or the moon; but prostrate yourselves before God.” (Verse 37) Speaking about the same basic truth, the surah says towards its end: “on the Day when He shall call out to them, "Where now are those allegedpartners ofMine?* They will say, "We confess to You that none of us can vouch for them?” (Verse 47)
A game da rayuwa ta gaba, surar tana yin gargadi mai tsanani ga wadanda ba su yi imani da ita ba: "Kaiton wadanda suke sanya abokan tarayya ga Allah, kuma ba sa bayar da zakka, kuma suna kafirce wa rayuwa ta gaba" (Aya ta 6-7). Tana karewa da wannan aya:
On the question of the life to come the surah issues a stern warning to those who do not believe in it: “ Woe to those who associate partners with Him, and who do not pay the obligatory charity, and who refuse to believe in the life to come” (Verses 6-7) It concludes with this verse:
Lallai suna cikin shakka game da ko za su haɗu da Ubangijinsu.
“ They are certainly in doubt as to whether they will meet their Lord.
Tabbas, Shi ne Mai kewaye da komai” (Aya ta 54). Haka kuma gaskiyar Ranar Alkiyama tana bayyana a cikin hotunan da surah ta zayyana game da abin da zai faru a wannan rana, wanda hakan ke tabbatar da zuwanta, da ƙarin tabbaci, ba tare da wata shakka ba.
Most certainly, He encompasses everything” (Verse 54) The truth of the Day of Judgement is also mentioned in the images the surah portrays of what happens on that day, which confirms, with even greater certainty, the fact of its undoubted coming.
Game da batun wahayi, akwai abubuwa da yawa a cikin wannan surah, har ta kai ga wahayi ya zama babban jigonta. A zahiri, surah ɗin tana farawa da cikakken bayani kan wannan batu: "Ha.
As for the question of revelation, there is much about it in this surah, almost to the point of revelation being its main theme. In fact, the surah opens with a detailed discussion of this issue: “Ha.
Mim. Wahayi ne daga Ubangiji Mai rahama, Mai jin kai, littafi ne wanda aayoyinsa aka bayyana su sarai a matsayin magana cikin harshen Larabci ga mutane masu ilimi. Yana kawo bushara da kuma gargadi.

Don haka ka yi abin da kake so, mu ma za mu yi abin da muke so." Ka ce: "Ni mutum ne kawai kamar ku. An yi mini wahayi cewa..." (Ayoyi 1-6) Sashe na tsakiyar surar yana ambaton yadda mushrikai suka karɓi Alkur'ani: "Waɗanda suka kafirta suna cewa: Kada ku saurari wannan Alkur'ani, sai dai ku cika shi da maganganu marasa amfani, don ku samu rinjaye."

(Ayoyi 41-44)
Mim. A revelation from the Lord of Grace, the Ever Merciful: a book, the verses of which have been clearly spelled out as a discourse in Arabic for people of knowledge. It gives good news as well as a warning. Yet, most of them turn away, so that they do not hear. They say: "Our hearts are veiled from whatever you call us to, and in our ears is deafness, and there is a barrier between us and you. So do you what you will, and so shall we.’ Say: "I am but a human being like yourselves. It has been revealed to me that..” (Verses 1-6) The middle part of the surah mentions how the idolaters received the Qur’an: “The unbelievers say: Do not listen to this Qur'an, but drown it in frivolous talk, so that you may gain the upper hand.” (Verse 26) Then we are given a more detailed account of how the Qur’an was received and a response to what the unbelievers used to assert about it: “ Those who reject this reminder [i.e. the Qur'an] when it comes to them ... It is indeed a sublime book; no falsehood can ever touch it openly or in a stealthy manner. It is bestowed from on high by One who is wise, worthy of praise. Nothing is being said to you that was not said to the messengers sent before your time. Your Lord is the Lord of forgiveness, but He also inflicts painful punishment. Had We willed to make this revelation a discourse in a non-Arabic tongue, they would have said: If only its verses were clearly spelled out! Why [a message in] a non-Arabic tongue and an Arab [messenger]?' Say: ‘This is guidance and healing for all those who believe; but as for the unbelievers: there is deafness in their ears, and they are blind to it.' They are, as it were, being called to from too far away." (Verses 41-44)
Surah ta yi bayani a cikin tattaunawarta game da hanyar isar da saƙon Allah da halayen da masu isar da saƙon ke bi, tana cewa: "Wane ne ya fi kyau a magana fiye da wanda ke kira zuwa ga Allah, yana aikata abin da yake daidai, kuma yana cewa, 'Ni ɗaya ne daga cikin waɗanda suka miƙa kansu ga Allah'? Alheri da mugunta ba za su yi daidai ba. Ka mayar da mugunta da abin da ya fi kyau, sai wanda yake maƙiyinka ya zama kamar aboki na gaskiya a kusa da kai. Amma ba wanda zai samu wannan sai waɗanda suke haƙuri a lokacin wahala; ba wanda zai samu wannan sai waɗanda suke da arziki mai girma ƙwarai. Idan wani kuzari daga Shaiɗan ya tada ka, ka nemi tsari ga Allah. Shi kaɗai ne Mai Ji, Masani." (Ayoyi 33-36)
In its discussion of the method of advocating the Divine message and the manners adopted by such advocates, the surah says: “ Who speaks better than he who calls people to God, does what is right, and says, ‘I am one of those who have surrendered themselves to God'? Good and evil cannot be equal. Repel evil with what is better, and he who is your enemy will become as close to you as a true friend. Yet none will attain this except those who are patient in adversity; none will attain it except those endowed with truly great fortune. If a prompting from Satan should stir you up, seek refuge with God. He alone is All-Hearing, All-Knowing." (Verses 33-36)
Waɗannan batutuwa suna zuwa ne a cikin yanayin hotuna masu tasiri sosai ga mai sauraro. Surar tana ɗaukar waɗannan hotuna daga duniya cike da alamomin Allah, da kuma daga ran ɗan adam tare da tsarinsa mai ban mamaki. Haka kuma tana nuna hotunan makomar da al'ummomin kafirai da suka gabata suka fuskanta, da kuma yanayi masu tsanani na Ranar Lahira.
These issues are presented against a backdrop of images that have a profound effect on the listener. The surah draws these images from a universe replete with signs and from the human soul with its remarkable constitution. It also shows images of the fates suffered by earlier communities of unbelievers and intense scenes from the Day of Resurrection.
Ɗaya daga cikin waɗannan al'amuran sararin duniya wani hoto ne mai cikakken bayani na asalin halittar sammai da ƙasa: "Ka ce: 'Shin da gaske kuna kafirta da Wanda Ya halicci ƙasa a cikin kwana biyu? Kuma kuna ɗaukar wasu a matsayin abokan tarayya da Shi? Shi ne Ubangijin dukkan halittu.
One of these scenes of the universe is a very detailed image of the original creation of the heavens and the earth: “Say: ‘Do you indeed disbelieve in Him who has created the earth in two Days? And do you claim others to be His equals? It is He who is the Lord of all the worlds.
Shi ne wanda ya sanya a bisa duniya duwatsu masu tsayi kuma masu tsayuwa a samanta, ya albarkace ta, ya kuma ƙayyade mata abincinta iri-iri cikin kwanaki huɗu, yana tabbatar da adalci ga dukan masu neman [irin waɗannan abinci]. Sa'an nan ya mai da hankalinsa ga sama, wadda hayaki ce, ya ce mata da duniya: "Ku zo, ku biyu, da yardarku ko da rashin yardarku." Su biyun suka ce:
He it is who placed on the earth firm mountains towering above it, and bestowed His blessings on it, and measured out its varied provisions in four days, ensuring equity for all who seek [such provisions]. Then, He applied His design to the sky, which was but smoke; and said to it and to the earth: ‘Come, both of you, willingly or unwillingly.' They both said:
"Mun zo da yardar rai." Sai Ya hukunta cewa su zama sammai bakwai cikin kwana biyu, kuma Ya sanya wa kowane sama aikinsa. Mun kawata sama mafi kusa da duniya da fitilu, kuma Muka sanya su zama masu tsaro. Wannan shi ne tsarin Mabuwayi, Mai Sani.
'We do come willingly. ' So He decreed that they become seven heavens in two days, and assigned to each heaven its task. We adorned the sky nearest to the earth with lights, and made them secure. Such is the design of the Almighty, the All-Knowing.” (Verses 9-12)
Hotunanmu na halittar dare da rana, da rana da wata, da ibadar da mala'iku suke yi, da ƙasa yayin da take yin sujada cikin ƙasƙantar da kai ga Allah, da yadda take farfaɗowa da rayuwa: Daga cikin ayoyinsa akwai dare da rana, da rana da wata. Kada ku yi sujada ga rana ko wata; sai dai ku yi sujada ga Allah wanda ya halicce su, idan shi ne kuke bautawa da gaske. Idan kuwa masu kafirci sun yi girman kai, to waɗanda suke wurin Ubangijinka suna tsarkake shi dare da rana, ba sa gajiyawa daga hakan. Wata daga cikin ayoyinsa kuma shi ne: kana ganin ƙasa a matattu, amma idan Muka saukar da ruwa a kanta, sai ta girgiza ta yi ƙaruwa [da rai]. Wanda ya rayar da ita tabbas zai rayar da matattu.
We also have images of the creation of the night and day, the sun and moon, the worship offered by the angels and the earth as it humbly worships God and how it springs into life: “Among His signs are the night and the day, and the sun and the moon. Do not prostrate yourselves before the sun or the moon; but prostrate yourselves before God, who has created them, if it is Him you really worship. If the unbelievers are too arrogant, those who are with your Lord glorify Him night and day and never grow weary of that. Another of His signs is this: you see the earth lying desolate, but when We send down rain water upon it, it stirs and swells [with life]. He who brings it to life will surely give life to the dead.
Shi ne mai iko bisa dukkan abu. ” (Ayoyi 37-39)
He has power over all things. ” (Verses 37-39)
Ana ganin ran mutum a fili kamar yadda yake a zahiri: "Mutum ba ya gajiya da roƙon alheri, amma idan masifa ta same shi, sai ya yanke ƙauna, ya nitse cikin kunci. Amma duk lokacin da Muka ba shi wani ɗanɗano na falalarMu bayan wahala ta same shi, tabbas zai ce, 'Wannan haƙƙina ne!' kuma, 'Ban tsammanin Sa'a za ta taɓa zuwa ba; amma ko da an mayar da ni wurin Ubangijina, lallai akwai lada mafi kyau a wurinSa.' Lalle ne, za Mu tabbatar wa kafirai cikakken bayani game da abin da suka aikata, kuma lalle ne za Mu ɗanɗana musu azaba mai tsanani. Idan Muka yi wa mutum ni'imomi, sai ya juya baya ya nisanta kansa; amma da zarar masifa ta same shi, sai ya koma ga addu'a mai tsawo." (Ayoyi 49-51)
The human soul is laid bare before our eyes such that we see it as it really is: “Man never tires of asking for good [things], but if evil fortune touches him, he abandons all hope, sinking into despair. Yet whenever We let him taste some of Our grace after hardship has befallen him, he is sure to say, 'This is but my due!* and, 'I do not think that the Last Hour will ever come; but even if I were to be taken back to my Lord, the best reward awaits me with Him. * We shall most certainly give the unbelievers a full account of what they did, and We shall most certainly give them a taste of severe suffering. When we bestow Our blessings on man, he tends to turn aside and stay aloof; but as soon as evil touches him, he turns to prolonged prayer(Verses 49-51)
Game da makomar al'ummomin da suka gabata, surar ta bayyana abin da ya faru da ('Ad da Thamud): "Dangane da 'Ad, sun yi girman kai a cikin ƙasa, ba bisa gaskiya ba, suka ce: 'Wane ne ya fi mu ƙarfi?' Ba su fahimci cewa Allah, wanda ya halicce su, ya fi su ƙarfi ba?" Sai dai, sun ci gaba da ƙaryata ayoyinmu. Saboda haka, Muka aika musu da iska mai ƙarfi, mai kadawa da ƙarfi a cikin kwanaki masu yawa na masifa, don mu ɗanɗana musu azaba mai wulakanci a rayuwar duniya. Amma azabar lahira za ta fi wulakanci, kuma ba za su sami wanda zai taimake su ba. Dangane da Thamud kuwa, Mun ba su shiriya, amma sun zaɓi makanta a kan shiriya. Note: the rules say to write "God" as the Hausa word for God, not "Allah". Applying that rule, the translation should read: Game da makomar al'ummomin da suka gabata, surar ta bayyana abin da ya faru da ('Ad da Thamud): "Dangane da 'Ad, sun yi girman kai a cikin ƙasa, ba bisa gaskiya ba, suka ce: 'Wane ne ya fi mu ƙarfi?' Ba su fahimci cewa Ubangiji, wanda ya halicce su, ya fi su ƙarfi ba?" Sai dai, sun ci gaba da ƙaryata ayoyinmu. Saboda haka, Muka aika musu da iska mai ƙarfi, mai kadawa da ƙarfi a cikin kwanaki masu yawa na masifa, don mu ɗanɗana musu azaba mai wulakanci a rayuwar duniya. Amma azabar lahira za ta fi wulakanci, kuma ba za su sami wanda zai taimake su ba. Dangane da Thamud kuwa, Mun ba su shiriya, amma sun zaɓi makanta a kan shiriya.
Regarding the fates of earlier communities, the surah presents what happened to the (Ad and Thamud: “As for the ‘Ad, they behaved arrogantly through the land, against all right, and said: 'Who is mightier than usT Did they not realize that God, who created them, was mightier than them? They continued to reject Our revelations. Therefore, We let loose upon them a howling gale raging through several days of misfortune, so as to give them, in the life of this world, a foretaste of humiliating suffering. Yet the suffering in the life to come will be even more humiliating, and they will have none to help them. As for the Thamud, We offered them guidance, but they chose blindness in preference to guidance.
Saboda haka, tsawa ta wulakanci da azaba ta sauka a kansu saboda abin da suka aikata. Kuma Muka tsirar da waɗanda suka yi imani kuma suka kasance masu tsoron Allah. (Ayoyi 15-18)
Therefore, the thunderbolt of humiliating suffering struck them in consequence of what they had wrought. And We saved those who believed and were God-fearing.” (Verses 15-18)
A ranar da za a tattara abokan gaba na Allah zuwa gaban wuta, za a tura su gaba har idan sun isa gare ta, kunnuwansu, idanunsu da fatunsu za su shaida a kansu, suna magana game da abin da suke aikatawa a duniya. Za su tambayi fatunsu: "Don me kuka shaida a kanmu?" Su kuma za su amsa:
Several scenes are presented from the Day of Resurrection. One intensely effective and detailed image shows the unbelievers speaking to their own senses: “On the day when God's enemies will be gathered together before the fire, they will be driven onwards until, when they reach it, their ears, their eyes and their very skins will bear witness against them, speaking of what they used to do [on earth]. They will ask their skins: 'Why did you bear witness against us V To which they will reply:
"Allah" is not to be used; I render it as God in Hausa: Ubangiji. Ubangiji, wanda ya ba dukkan abubuwa ikon magana, ya sa mu yi magana. Shi ne ya halicce ku tun farko, kuma zuwa gare shi ne yanzu kuke komawa." (Ayoyi 19-21) Wani hoto kuma ya nuna, a fili sosai, fushin da waɗanda aka ruɗa a wannan rayuwa suke ji game da waɗanda suka ruɗe su: "Kafirai suna cewa: 'Ya Ubangijinmu! Ka nuna mana waɗancan aljanu da mutanen da suka ɓatar da mu. Za mu tattake su a ƙarƙashin ƙafafunmu don su kasance daga cikin mafi ƙasƙanci." (Aya ta 29)
'God, who gave speech to all things, has made us speak. It is He who created you in the first instance, and to Him you now return.” (Verses 19-21) Another image shows, in full clarity, the anger felt by those who were deceived in this life against those who deluded them: “The unbelievers say: 'Our Lord! Show us those jinn and men who have led us astray. We shall trample them under our feet so that they shall be among the lowest of the low.” (Verse 29)
Wannan babban nau'in hotuna, wanda ke zama bayanan da ake gabatar da manyan batutuwan imani a kansu, shi ne yanayin gaba ɗaya na suratin. Tun daga farkonta har zuwa ƙarshenta, muna samun kanmu a gaban tasiri mafi burgewa kuma mafi ƙarfi.
This great variety of imagery, forming the background against which the main issues of faith are presented, constitutes the overall ambience of the surah. Right from the very outset until the end we find ourselves before the most striking and powerful of influences.
Ana iya raba surar zuwa sassa biyu, kowane daga cikinsu ya ƙunshi sassa masu alaƙa sosai da juna. Sashe na farko yana farawa da ayoyin da ke magana game da Alƙur'ani, yanayinsa da saukar sa, da kuma halin kafirai game da shi.

Waɗannan suna karɓar mala'iku waɗanda ke ba su kwanciyar hankali kuma suna ba su labarin manyan makomarsu.
The surah may be divided into two parts, each consisting of closely interlinked sections. The first part begins with verses speaking about the Qur’an, its nature and revelation, as well as the unbelievers’ attitude to it. This is followed by an account of the creation of the heavens and the earth and the stories of the ‘Ad and Thamud. Then, comes a scene of the unbelievers on the Day of Judgement and how they face the testimony of their own senses. It then speaks about those unbelievers in this present life and how they have gone so astray. It states that they had cronies who made evil things seem fair to them. As a result they used to urge one another not to listen to the Qur’an, but instead to try to silence it so that they might win. This is followed by an image depicting how angry they feel on the Day of Judgement with those cronies who deluded them. A contrasting image shows us those who believed in God’s oneness and followed the straight path. These receive angels who reassure them and give them news of their great prospects.
Malaikun sun gaya musu cewa za su zama abokan tafiyarsu da masu tsare su a wannan rayuwa ta duniya da kuma a rayuwa ta gaba. Wannan sashe ya ƙare da ambaton saƙon da kuma waɗanda ke yaɗa shi.
The angels tell them that they will be their friends and guardians in both this present life and in the life to come. This part concludes with a reference to the message and those who advocate it.
Kashi na biyu ya fara ne da magana game da alamomin da Allah ya sanya a sararin samaniya: dare, rana, rana da wata, mala'iku masu bauta, da kasa mara rai yadda take raya kuma ta cika da rayuwa. Bayan haka sai aka ambaci wadanda suke jayayya game da alamomin Allah da wahayinsa, wanda hakan ya kai ga ambaton Littafin Allah da manyan siffofinsa, sannan aka yi takaitaccen ambaton littafin Musa da rikice-rikicen da suka taso a tsakanin mutanensa game da shi. Surar ta bar hukunci a kan dukkan wadannan sabanin ga Allah, a lokacin da ya tsara. A nan surar ta kara ambaton Sa'a ta Karshe, da cewa sanin ta na Allah kadai ne. Haka kuma ya san 'ya'yan da za su fito daga furanni, da abin da kowace mace mai ciki za ta haifa. Surar ta kuma nuna hoton kafirai yadda suke tambaya game da wadancan abubuwan bautar da suka yi ikirarin cewa abokan tarayya ne ga Allah. Bayan haka surar ta gabatar da ruhin dan Adam yadda yake, yana tuge dukkan kayan rufinsa.
The second part begins by speaking about the signs God placed in the universe: the night, day, sun, moon, angels in devotion, the desolate earth and how it quickens and becomes full of life. This is followed by a reference to those who dispute Gods signs and His revelations, leading to a reference to Gods book and its main qualities before a brief reference is made to Moses’ book and the disputes that arose among his people concerning it. The surah leaves judgement concerning all these disputes to God, at the time appointed by Him. At this point the surah adds a reference to the Last Hour and that knowledge of it belongs to God alone. He also knows the fruit that will eventually develop from flowers and what offspring will be born to pregnant females. It also shows an image of the unbelievers and how they ask about those deities whom they alleged to be Gods partners. Following this the surah presents the human soul as it is, shedding all its coverings.
Ko da yake mutum yana da himma wajen kare kansa, bai ɗaukar matakan kiyaye kansa daga sakamakon musanta Allah da saƙonninsa ba. Note: the rule says to write the Hausa word for God, not "Allah", so the correct rendering is "Allah" replaced accordingly. Corrected translation: Ko da yake mutum yana da himma wajen kare kansa, bai ɗaukar matakan kiyaye kansa daga sakamakon musanta Ubangiji da saƙonninsa ba.
Although man is keen to protect himself he takes no precautions to spare himself the results of denying God and His messages.
Surah ta ƙare da alkawarin Allah cewa zai sa alamun sa da ke cikin mutum da kuma a cikin sararin duniya su kasance a bayyane ga mutane, domin su sami damar sake duba halayensu da kuma samun tabbaci game da imaninsu: "Za Mu nuna musu alamominmu a cikin sararin duniya [na halitta] da kuma cikin kansu, har ya bayyana a gare su cewa wannan [wahayin] gaskiya ne. Shin bai isa ba cewa Ubangijinka shaida ne a kan komai? Lallai suna cikin shakka game da ko za su haɗu da Ubangijinsu. Tabbas, Shi yana kewaye da komai" (Ayoyi 53—54).
The surah concludes with a promise by God that He will make His signs within man and in the universe available to people so that they have a chance to review their attitude and be assured of their faith: “ We shall show them Our signs in the wide horizons [of the universe] and within themselves, so that it will become clear to them that this [revelation] is indeed the truth. Is it not enough that your Lord is witness to everything? They are certainly in doubt as to whether they will meet their Lord. Most certainly, He encompasses everything” (Verses 53—54)
