Overall meaning : Allah, Exalted and Sublime be He, says: Your Lord, Muhammad, creates and chooses whatever He wills, but people to not have the power to choose or to suggest anything to Him to choose. Glory be to Allah and High is He exalted above that they associate with Him! Your Lord knows all that their hearts conceal and everything they say and do in public. He is Allah; there is no god worthy of worship but Him. He alone is deserving of all praise in this life and in the life to come; with Him rests all judgement in this world and the next, and to Him you will all be returned after your death to repay you according to your deeds.
