No authentic has been reported regarding the reason for the revelation of the beginning of Surat Al-Shura (Ha-Mim, Ain-Sin-Qaf). The saying narrated from Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman—though its authenticity is weak—is an interpretation, not a reason for revelation. Scholars have differed in interpreting the disconnected letters at the beginning of the surahs, and the soundest approach is to remain silent about them and entrust the knowledge of their interpretation to Allah the Almighty. The was revealed to clarify doctrines and rulings.
