The Holy Quran - Surah Ad-Dhuha

After the first sura (al-Alaq) was received, there was a period of silence in which no further messages were revealed. During this time, the new Prophet wondered if he had somehow displeased God, who it seemed for a while was no longer sending down His message. This sura broke that silence, and reassured Muhammad that all will be understood in time. The image of the morning (ad-Dhuha) is the first word of the sura, and can be understood as symbolizing Muhammad’s “new day” as the Messenger of God, as well as the “dawn” of the new way of life that would become Islam. After this sura, the visitations of Gabriel with the words of the Qur’an would come to Muhammad regularly until his death.

  • Asalaam o alaikum! This is Beautiful Qiraat and a lovely post. It is a reminder for each one of us to trust in Allah, and not to become impatient if the resolution of problems dont come immediately after dua.
    Jazaaik Allah hu khairan!
