Naturally, all_mentioned facts in the sura is to guide human. These firm and stable facts justify the necessity of having a belief. Among these facts, it is possible to make a sort of categorizations as:

1) Some facts, such as the existing Qur'an, facts pertaining to the Allah's Names and attributions and also the Hereafter, have a higher glorification and exaltation comparing to other facts. That is, their horizontal perspective and dominancy is to the extent as if the other facts are introduced as their subdivisions. 

2) Some facts are about human and will happen by him; but not specify to a believer or a disbeliever, including the existence of Angels accompanying human. 

In addition to the above_mentioned point, in this group, there are some facts which are occurring in the whole world independent from human; yet, it is required for human to take a lesson by its observation; as an instance, "And We sent down the blissful rain from the sky and We produced with it gardens and grains for harvest" ( verse 9/ Qaf sura)

3) Some facts specifically related to believers and some other ones to disbelievers such as presenting actions of each of the confronting the Truth. Defining Faith and disbelief is naturally lead to express behaviors and confrontations.

Food For Thought#6 On Qaf Sura

In The Name of ALLAH

Qaaf: One of the Divine Abbreviated Letters

Revealed at Mecca

Part#1

Mankind with his various needs, events, confrontations and challenges is a substrate for the occurrence of the Divine Signs( Ayat) and naturally by passing the steps and being in his own growth stages, he will require more knowledge, spirituality and support.

Revealing facts in the whole world and in human aspect according to his needs in different substrates is called "Tafsil" or detail since, in this condition , a fact is appeared and acted in various substrates item by item. 

The Holy Qur'an informs human on these detailed facts and declares a sort of guidance in accordance with his needs. Based on this, by studying Qur'an, it would be possible to perceive the required detailed facts; i.e., each Qur'an verse is in the position of detail ( Tafsil) of a truth and human could gain knowledge and an attention to the Creator's recognition. 

Regarding to this, each of verses could be classified into two knowledge and perception aspects. The subject of verses could be the base of this classification. Hereby, it would be possible to differentiate between suras referring to their scientific contents which helps us to disclose the specific facts of each sura.

The essential point to notice pertaining to verses differentiation is that this detail (Tafsil) finds its meaning in two aspects of human being; 1) human as a criterion: that is, the messenger and 2) other humans. Those facts which have a high horizon are defined in the messenger aspect. By this means, the grade of facts varies to the human's eminence and by considering this fact, it would be possible to differentiate sura verses.

Additionally, each action in human is formed on the basis of a perception. By expressing facts, Qur'an provides the grounds of presenting beliefs, states, attributions, actions and deeds. In order to know how it is possible to recognize the detailed suras based on human knowledge and perception, we will study the Qaf sura.
