Commentary
The people of Medina and Abu Amr read with a فتح (opening) on أن. Its meaning is: And because He is your Lord and the Lord of you, so worship Him, like His saying وَأَنَّ الْمَسَاجِدَ لِلَّهِ فَلا تَدْعُوا مَعَ اللَّهِ أَحَداً. And Al-Astar and Abu Ubaid read with a كسر (closing) as a beginning. And in the reading of Abu, it is إن الله, with a كسر (closing) without a واو (waw), and بإن الله, meaning: because of that, فاعبدوه.
