This is, a soora which We have revealed and prescribed (read faradnaahaa, or [the intensive form] farradnaahaa, on account of the large number of prescriptions contained in it) and wherein We have revealed manifest signs, [signs] containing clear indications, that perhaps you might remember (tadhakkaroona: the second taa' [of tatadhakkaroona] has been assimilated with the dhaal), that you might be admonished.
