Commentary

﴿Except for the servants of Allah﴾; meaning: those who are suitable for being associated with the Greatest Name; in terms of its application to the Greatest Essence. Therefore, he made it clear and did not conceal it; because the pronoun refers back to the essence of the past. Perhaps the limitation mentioned earlier may mislead one to understand the limitation of their honor by the glorification; ﴿the sincere﴾; from all of creation; or from the Arabs; they are those who embraced Islam among them after the revelation of this surah. For they do not describe Him except by what they have been permitted in it; and because this surah is the surah of those who are free from the attachments that hinder them from moving towards Him; he repeated the description of sincerity in it many times.
