  And they are delighted by it, because it gathers the souls and eases the heart from the toil of thought.

  لِأَنَّهَا — because it. A causal connector built from 'because' plus the emphasis particle inna plus -ha 'it', opening the reason-clause. Inna's job inside it is to push its noun into the accusative and assert the reason firmly; the -ha again reaches back to the wit mentioned before.
