* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn


{ إِنَّا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ خَلَقْنَاهُ بِقَدَرٍ }

Truly everything read inna kulla shay’in is in the accusative as a dependent clause because of a verb governing it have We created in a measure by ordainment bi-qadarin ‘in a measure’ is a circumstantial qualifier referring to kulla ‘every’ in other words ‘already predetermined’; a variant reading for kulla has nominative kullu as the subject the predicate of which is khalaqnāhu ‘We have created’.
