﴿ كَذَٰلِكَ يُوحِىٓ إِلَيْكَ وَإِلَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ﴾

“THUS has God, the Almighty, the Wise, revealed [the truth] unto thee, [O Muhammad,] and unto those who preceded thee:”

(Thus Allah the Mighty) in retribution against those who do not believe in Him, (the Wise) in His command and decree, He commands that none should be worshipped except Him; it is also said this means: the Mighty in His sovereignty and dominion, the Wise in His command and decree (inspireth thee (Muhammad) as (He inspired) those before thee) of messengers; Allah says: just as We have revealed to you (Ha. Mim. 'Ayn. Sin. Qaf.) We have also revealed to those messengers who came before you.
