Readings:
خَطِيْئَتُهُ
khaṭīʾatuhū
“and his sin has encircled him ”
Singular: referring to the greatest sin (shirk). It may also be intended in the plural meaning.
خَطِيْئَاتُهُ
khaṭīʾātuhū
“and his sins have encircled him”
I.e., the major sins, the biggest of which is disbelief, (or a reference to the many punishments of his great sin).
Explanation:
These readings amount to the same meaning, as the concept of 'encircling' implies plurality. In both readings, the word khaṭīʾah appears after the similar term sayyiʾah, and one or the other may refer to major or minor sins, or specifically to the greatest of all sins, i.e. associating partners with Allah [Makki].
