قٓۚ وَٱلۡقُرۡءَانِ ٱلۡمَجِيدِ
1. The Qur’an is made up of such letter from the Arabic alphabet. The Arabs at the time of revelation were the unmatched masters of the Arabic language and yet when challenged were totally unable to bring anything like the Qur’an. Although these disjointed Arabic letters are referring to the inimitable nature of the Qur’an and its divine source, God knows best its meaning.
2. That the defiant pagans of Mecca have certainly not believed in Muhammad.

Arabische uitleg van de Qur'an:
أَءِذَا مِتۡنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابٗاۖ ذَٰلِكَ رَجۡعُۢ بَعِيدٞ
Arabische uitleg van de Qur'an:
تَبۡصِرَةٗ وَذِكۡرَىٰ لِكُلِّ عَبۡدٖ مُّنِيبٖ
3. I.e., The one who believes in the Oneness of God and performs deeds of His obedience, and always ask His forgiveness.
Arabische uitleg van de Qur'an:
وَنَزَّلۡنَا مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءٗ مُّبَٰرَكٗا فَأَنۢبَتۡنَا بِهِۦ جَنَّٰتٖ وَحَبَّ ٱلۡحَصِيدِ
9. We have sent down blessed water (rain), from the sky4, then We cause to grow thereby gardens and the grain that is reaped,
4. Muhammad, the Messenger of God (may peace and blessings be upon him) led the morning prayer at Hudaibiyah. There were some marks of the rainfall during the night. At the conclusion of prayer he turned towards people and said: "Do you know what Allāh, your Lord, has said?" They replied: "Allāh and His Messenger know best". Upon this he (the prophet) said: He (Allāh) said: "Some of My bondsmen entered the morning as My believers and some as unbelievers". He who said: "We have had a rainfall due to the blessing and mercy of Allāh, he is My believer and a disbeliever of stars, and who said: We have had a rainfall due to the rising of such and such (star) disbelieved in Me and affirmed his faith in the stars." Allāh causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.
This conveys to us the breadth of Allah’s grace. He doesn’t simply pour His grace on those who like Him, but even on those who hate Him. All of us enjoy the benefits of Allah’s grace. We have air to breathe. He gave us everything we need in our life. Glory and honour be to Allāh.

وَٱلنَّخۡلَ بَاسِقَٰتٖ لَّهَا طَلۡعٞ نَّضِيدٞ
5 .The righteous will flourish like a palm tree. They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green, proclaiming, “Allāh is upright; there is no evil from him.” He is the Giver of all good gifts.
Once God's messenger asked his companions, "Amongst the trees, there is a tree, the leaves of which do not fall and is like a Muslim. Tell me the name of that tree." Everybody started thinking about the trees of the desert areas. A companion said: I thought of the date-palm but felt shy to answer. The others then asked, "What is that tree, O God's messenger ?" He replied, "It is the date-palm tree."

38. We created the heavens, the earth, and all that is between them in six Days15, and nothing of fatigue touched Us16.
15. The verses of the Qur’an reveal how Allāh created the world in exactly six days. Each of these days were twenty-four hours in length. It was not at all impossible for Allāh to do this; He alone is All-Powerful. He needs only to speak a word and it is done. Who among men can do that? From the Psalms of David, we read: “For he [Allāh] spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.” Psalms 33:9. Allāh needs only to speak and it appears. "His Command, when He wills anything, is only to say to it: ‘Be,’ and it is." Qur’an chapter 36 verse 82. If it is said, why did He not create it in an instant when He is Able to do so? The answer is:
(i) He wanted to create something each day to show His power to the angels and those who witnessed it.
(ii) He was preparing things for Adam and his offspring before Adam existed, to emphasize Adam’s high standing before the angels.
(iii) Doing things in a short time is more indicative of power, and deliberation is more indicative of wisdom. Allāh wanted to manifest His wisdom in that, just as He manifested His power when He said, ‘ “Be!” And it is.’
(iv) He taught deliberation to His slaves, because if the One Who does not make mistakes created the universe in a deliberate manner, then it is more appropriate for those who are vulnerable to making mistakes to do things in a deliberate manner.
(v) Creation was accomplished step by step, lest anyone think that this happened as the result of an accident of nature.
16. Allāh in no way was He weary or fatigue or needing rest after the completion of the creation. Expressions like tired, weak, fatigue, or in need of rest are among the traits of human beings but not of Allāh Almighty.
