وَالْأَرْضَ وَضَعَهَا لِلْأَنَامِ
And the earth He laid [out] for the creatures. (10)
وَالْأَرْضَ وَضَعَهَا لِلْأَنَامِ (And the earth is placed by Him for creatures...Ar-Rahman 55:10 ⧉). The word 'anam with fatha [=a ] on the first letter on the grammatical measure of سَحَاب sahab, refers to all the creatures that are on the surface of the earth. Baidawi translates the word as 'everything having a soul'. Evidently, the word 'anam in the verse refers to mankind and the jinn, because only these two species of Allah's creation are obligated to observe the precepts of Shari` ah. Furthermore, they are addressed throughout the Surah. For instance in the refrain verse فَبِأَيِّ آلَاءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ (So, [ O mankind and Jinn,] which of the bounties of your Lord will you deny?...Ar-Rahman 55:13 ⧉ ) The dual second person attached pronouns and the dual forms of the verbs second person sustained throughout Surah Ar-Rahman⧉ are addressed to Jinn and mankind.
