2 The completion of the oath is understood to be that the Qur’ān is inimitable and thus a miracle from Allāh.
Each word's meaning and sound
Saad. By the Qur’ān containing reminder. The discussion on similar letters has already passed in the beginning of Sūrah Al-Baqarah. I swear by the Qur’ān which is full of admonition, reminding mankind that which benefits them in their worldly life and the Afterlife. The matter is not as the idolaters think, namely that Allah has partners beside Him.
