The Qur’ān addresses human nature with its own logic. It was revealed from on high by the One who created human nature. He knows what suits it and brings the best out of it. He also knows how to address it and what affects its inner thoughts and feelings. The Qur’ān explains to human nature the truth that is deeply ingrained in it, which it knew long before it was addressed by the Qur’ān, because it was initially created with it. This is the truth of acknowledging God as the Creator, the One, the Supreme, and offering worship to Him alone. Similarly, the entire universe glorifies and praises Him at all times. The problem is that certain aspects of life on earth, some physical impulses, desires, whims and cravings may cloud human nature’s vision or force its deviation from the right path. Therefore, the Qur’ān addresses our nature with the logic it knows, presenting to it the truth that it has overlooked. In this way, it moulds human nature on the basis of its code for living, leading it to earn the pleasure of God, the Creator who controls everything.

An wannan sūrah, wadda aka saukar da ita a Makka, tana ba da misali game da yadda Alƙur'ani yake magana da zukatanmu. Tana magana kan batun imani a tsakanin masu bautar gumaka waɗanda suka karkata daga gaskiya. Wannan ita ce babbar matsalar da dukkan sūrorin da aka saukar a Makka suke magana a kai, ko da yake ta hanyoyi daban-daban da kuma ta fuskoki daban-daban. Kuma yadda Alƙur'ani yake amfani da irin waɗannan hanyoyi daban-daban wani muhimmin ɓangare ne na tsarinsa na kiyaye zukatanmu a farke.

Revealed in Makkah, this sūrah provides an example of how the Qur’ān addresses our hearts. It tackles the question of faith among the idolaters who had deviated from the truth. This is indeed the overall issue that all sūrahs revealed in Makkah tackle, albeit in a variety of ways and from different angles. That the Qur’ān employs such different means is an essential part of its method to keep our hearts on the alert.

Babban jigon imani a cikin wannan sūrah shi ne tauhidin Allah. Tana nuna yadda ya kamata mu keɓe ibada ga Shi shi kaɗai, mu nuna godiya ga ni'imominsa, mu kafa imani mai ƙarfi ga lahira, da abin da hakan ya ƙunsa na lissafi mai tsanani da sakamako na adalci. Haka kuma, masu bi su bi abin da Allah ya saukar, su bar duk wani tunani da ya saɓa wa wannan.

The central issue of faith focuses in this sūrah on God’s oneness. It demonstrates how we should address worship to Him alone, express gratitude for His blessings, establish firm belief in the hereafter and what this involves of careful reckoning and just reward. Believers should also follow what God has revealed and abandon all notions that are at variance with this.

Suratin ta gabatar da wannan batu gaba ɗaya ta hanyar da ke gayyatar tunani game da hanya mai ban mamaki ta Alƙur'ani. Tana magana da yanayin mu da zukatanmu. Duk masu kira zuwa ga imani ya kamata su yi nazarin wannan hanya sosai.

The sūrah presents this whole issue in a way that invites reflection on the remarkable approach of the Qur’ān. It addresses our natures and our hearts. All who advocate faith should study this approach carefully.

Ana gabatar da batun imani a nan a kan bangon dukkan duniya: sammanta, ƙasa, rana da wata, dare da rana, tekuna da sararin samaniya, raƙuma da ruwan sama, tsirrai da bishiyoyi, da sauransu. Wannan babban bango ne da Alƙur'ani ke amfani da shi sau da yawa, domin ya mayar da duniya a matsayin alamomi bayyanannu da aka shimfiɗa a kewaye da mu, suna magana da zukatanmu da hankalinmu, suna sa su rayuwa.

The issue of faith is presented here against the backdrop of the entire universe: its skies, earth, sun and moon, night and day, seas and atmosphere, waves and rain, plants and trees, etc. This colossal background is frequently employed in the Qur’ān, so as to make the universe a host of clear signs placed all around us, speaking to our hearts and minds, bringing them alive.

Ko da yake batun ɗaya ne, kuma asalinsa iri ɗaya ne, ana gabatar da shi a cikin wannan sūrah sau huɗu, a sassa huɗu. A kowane sashe, sūrah tana kai mu zuwa babban faɗin halitta, tana ɗaukar sabbin tasiri, tana amfani da sabbin salo. Duba waɗannan gabatarwa huɗu da kyau, da yadda kowannensu yake farawa da ƙarewa cikin ban mamaki, yana da daɗi musamman, kuma yana ƙarfafa mai karatu ya amsa da kyakkyawan martani.

Although the issue is one, and the background is the same, it is presented in this sūrah four times in four sections. In each the sūrah takes us around the great expanse of the universe, picking up new influences and using new styles. Looking carefully at these four presentations, and how each starts and finishes in a remarkable way is especially pleasant and encourages a positive response.

Ayar farko tana farawa nan take bayan harufa uku da ke daban waɗanda suke farawa da sūrar.

The first begins immediately after the three separate letters that begin the sūrah.

Waɗannan suna nuna cewa sūratun ta ƙunshi irin waɗannan harufa, kuma daga cikinsu ne ake gabatar da ayoyin wannan littafi cike da hikima da shiriya daga Allah.

These indicate that the sūrah is composed of such letters, and that it is from these that verses of this book are presented packed with wisdom and divine guidance.

Bugu da ƙari, yana ba da tabbacin cewa waɗanda suka yi fice wajen aikin alheri za su samu rahamar Allah. Su ne waɗanda "suke tsayar da salla, kuma suke ba da zakka, kuma su ne masu yakinin lahira." (Aya ta 4) Don haka yana tabbatar da yakinin lahira da wajabcin bautawa Allah. Waɗannan abubuwa suna haɗuwa da wani tasiri bayyananne a kan ruhi:

Furthermore, it assures those who excel in goodness of receiving God’s mercy. These are the ones who “attend regularly to prayers, give in charity and are indeed certain of the hereafter.” (Verse 4) Thus it confirms the certainty of the hereafter and the duty of offering worship to God. These are coupled with a clear psychological influence:

"Waɗannan su ne waɗanda suke bin shiriyar Ubangijinsu, kuma su ne waɗanda za su samu nasara."

“Those are the ones who follow their Lord’s guidance, and they are the ones who will be successful.” (Verse 5)

A wasu kuma kan sayi maganganun banza don su karkatar da mutane daga hanyar Allah, suna yin izgili da ayoyin. Waɗannan suna fuskantar wani mummunan hukunci wanda ya dace da izgilinsu: “Waɗannan suna da azaba mai wulakanci a gare su.” (Aya ta 6) Ayar ta bayyana motsin waɗannan mutane kamar haka: “Idan aka karanta wa irin wannan mutum ayoyinmu, sai ya juya baya cikin girman kai kamar bai ji su ba.” (Aya ta 7) Wannan kuma yana tare da wata alama ta hankali da ke nuna yadda irin waɗannan mutane suke da ƙasƙanci: “kamar dai akwai nauyi a cikin kunnuwansa.” (Aya ta 7) Wata alama kuma tana tsoratar da zukatansu, ko da yake an bayar da ita cikin izgili: “Ka ba shi labarin azaba mai raɗaɗi, don haka.” (Aya ta 7) Kalmar Larabci bashshirhu, wadda ake amfani da ita don “bada labari”, ana amfani da ita koyaushe idan ana ba mutane labari mai daɗi da farin ciki. Amma amfani da ita a nan yana nuna ma’anar izgili a fili.
