Overall meaning : Allah Almighty states that He has made the Ka’bah, the Inviolable House of Worship, a means of support and benefit for people which fulfils their religious and worldly interests, and so too the sacred months and the sacrificial animals that are led to the sanctuary of Makkah as offerings, particularly the garlanded ones. He has ordained this, He explains, in order that people may know that He knows all that is in the heavens and the earth, including His knowledge of what will benefit their religion and worldly matters, and that He has full knowledge of everything.
Then He warns them of His punishment and makes them desirous of earning His rewards by drawing their attention to the fact that He inflicts severe punishment on those who disobey Him and that He is All-Forgiving—He pardons the sins of those who turn to Him in repentance—and is full of compassion and merciful towards His servants.
He further states that the sole duty of His Messenger, Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, is to convey His message, which he has dutifully delivered, and that He knows whatever all people reveal and do openly and whatever they conceal in their hearts and do secretly and that He will repay them according to their deeds.
Then He instructs His Prophet, Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, to tell people: Evil and good are by no means alike even though one may be dazzled by the abundance of evil. Fear Allah, then, you who are endowed with reason and understanding, so that you may attain what you seek and be saved from what you dread in this life and in the hereafter.
