• والسرائر جمع سريرة وهي سرائر الله التي بينه وبين عبده في ظاهره وباطنه لله فالايمان من السرائر وشرائعه من السرائر

  Innermost matters is the plural of innermost matter; it refers to God's innermost matters that lie between Him and His servant, in both outward and inward aspects. Faith is among the innermost matters, and His laws are among the innermost matters.

  فَالإِيمَانُ — then faith. The prefixed fa- here draws a conclusion from what preceded, 'and so, therefore', turning the following noun into the upshot of the argument rather than just adding a fact. That noun stands as the topic of a new statement in the base nominative shape, which is how Arabic flags it as the thing being commented on.
