The surah begins by describing a clear evidence or a clear sign (Al-Bayyinah), referring to the revelation of the Quran and the prophethood of Muhammad (peace be upon him). It then discusses the response of people when presented with this clear evidence—those who accept it with gratitude and those who reject it with disbelief.

It highlights the clarity of the message and encourages believers to follow the path of righteousness outlined in the Quran.
