Sūrah Al-Lahab 111:1-5
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحَيَـ
سَيَصْلَى نَارًا
كَمَآ أَغْنَى عَنْهُ مَالُهُ، وَمَا كَسَبَ
تَبَّتْ يَدَآ أَبِىِ لَهَبٍ وَتَبَّ
فِي جِيدِهَا حَبْلٌ مِّن مَّسَلِ
﴿ وَامْرَأَتُهُ حَمَّالَةَ الْخَطَبِ
ذَاتَ لَبٍ
SŪRAH AL-LAHAB
(The Flame)
This Sūrah is Makki and comprises 5 'ayat (verses)
With the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Very-Merciful
Perish the two hands of Abu Lahab, and perish he!1 [1] Neither his wealth
benefited him, nor what he earned. 2 [2] He will soon enter a Fire, full of
flames, [3] and his wife as well,_the wicked3 carrier of firewood.4 [4]
Around her neck, there is (a collar of iron, like) a well-twisted rope.5 [5]
1) Abu Lahab was one of the uncles of the Holy Prophet . When the Holy
Prophet de was directed by verse 26:214 to invite his clan to Islam, he ascended
to the mount of Safa and cried out to the tribe of Quraish in a manner that was
known among them for warning the tribe of an expected attack from an enemy.
All the clans of Quraish assembled around him, and he said to them, "If I were
to tell you that the enemy is about to attack you, would you believe me?" All of
them replied in affirmative. Then he said, "I am a warner sent to you before a
severe torment (if you continue worshipping idols.)" Abu Lahab responded,
'Perish you! Is it for this purpose that you have called us together?' This Surah
was revealed in this background.
2) According to some reports, Abu Lahab bragged that if the torment of the
Hereafter was true, he had enough wealth and children to save himself from it.
3) The word 'wicked' is though not available in the text in express terms, the
nasb on hammalah,, which is termed in Arabic grammar as nasb 'aladh-dhamm
carries this meaning.
4) She was Umm Jamil. Like her husband, she was a staunch enemy of the Holy
Prophet . According to some reports, she used to collect thorny branches
from the jungle, and place them in the way of the Holy Prophet . This is one
explanation of the phrase 'carrier of firewood'. According to other exegetes,
'carrier of firewood' is an expression used by the Arabs for a person who sows
dissension and ignites the fire of enmity between people by backbiting. She
used to narrate unfounded stories about the Holy Prophet de to ignite the fire
of hatred against him.
5) This is the position in which she will be resurrected on the Day of Judgment.

Sūrah Al-Ikhlāș 112:1-4
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحَيَـ
لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ
اُللَّهُ الصََّمَدُ
قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدُّ
وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَّهُ كُفُوَا أَحَدٌّ
SURAH AL-IKHLĀȘ
(The Sincerity)
This Sūrah is Makki and comprises 4 'ayat (verses)
With the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Very-Merciful
Say, "The truth is that Allah is One. 1 [1] Allah is Besought of all, needing
none. 2 [2] He neither begot anyone, nor was he begotten. [3] And equal
to Him has never been any one." [4]
1) The concept of pure monotheism was foreign to almost all the people living
in Arabia, be they pagans, Jews, or Christians. Pagans had coined deities apart
from Allah, and called the angels as Allah's daughters, while Christians divided
godhead in three Persons, and believed Jesus as Allah's son. Jews of Arabia
believed. 'Uzair as Allah's son. When the Holy Prophet explained pure
monotheism, and invited people to worship Allah alone, many of them asked
him to give full description of Allah Ta'ala. In answer to such questions, this
Sūrah was revealed, which removes all misconceptions about Allah in brief,
eloquent and impressive style that cannot be translated in any other language.
Since it explains the doctrine of Tauhid, which is one of the three basic doctrines
of Islam, this Surah is given the title of 'one third of the Holy Qur'an'. Its
recitation too carries the reward of the recitation of one third of the Holy
Qur'an.
2) The original word is samad, which means 'one who needs none to help him,
but all people turn to him for help'. The pagans believed that Allah has many
deities to assist Him in managing the affairs of the universe. This verse declares
that being besought of all, He needs none to assist Him. Anyone who needs
help from others is not worthy of being called as God.

Sūrah Al-Falaq 113:1-5
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرََّنِ الرَّحْيَةِ
وَمِن شَرِّ غَاسِقِ إِذَا وَقَبَ
مِن شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ
قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ
وَمِن شَرِّ حَاسِدٍ إِذَا حَسَدَ
وَمِن شَرِّ النَّفَّشَتِ فِى الْعُقَدِ
SŪRAH AL-FALAQ
(The Break of Dawn)
This Sūrah is Madani, and comprises 5 'āyāt (verses)
With the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Very-Merciful
Say, "I seek refuge with the Lord of the daybreak [1] from the evil of
everything He has created, '[2] and from the evil of the dark night when
it penetrates, 2[3] and from the evil of the women who blow on the knots,
3
[4] and from the evil of an envier when he envies. 4 [5]
1) These two Surahs, placed at the end of the Holy text in the present
arrangement, were revealed to teach the Holy Prophet # and his followers how
to seek Allah's refuge from the unseen actions of sorcerers, devils and hostile
human beings. According to authentic reports, some Jews cast a magical spell
on the Holy Prophet . By virtue of the divine protection given to him, no
magic could refrain or divert him from discharging his duties as a Prophet.
However, the spell cast by the Jew made him to suffer from some disease. On
that occasion, these two Surahs were revealed, and the Holy Prophet the was
directed to recite them, after which he was freed from the influence of the
witchcraft. Then the Holy Prophet a used to recite them every night before
going to sleep.
2) Most of the sorcerers practice their sorcery in hours of night. Moreover, this
is the time when all harmful creatures come out and try to subject people to
their evil acts.
3) This is one of the ways generally adopted by sorcerers, especially by women
practicing witchcraft.
4) Normally, the basic reason of using black magic against someone is jealousy.
In addition, jealousy may prompt the envier to afflict other harms to a person.
That is why it has been specifically mentioned in this context.

SŪRAH AN-NĀS
(The Mankind)
This Sūrah is Madani, and it comprises 6 'ayat (verses)
With the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Very-Merciful
Say, "I seek refuge with the Lord of mankind, [1] the King of mankind,
[2] the God of mankind, [3] from the evil of the whisperer who withdraws
(when Allah's name is pronounced), 1 [4] the one who whispers in the
hearts of people, [5] whether from among the Jinn or Mankind. 2 [6]
1) 'Whispering' in this verse means evil thoughts and scruples created in one's
heart. Normally this is done by Satan, but when Allah's name is pronounced
and His refuge is sought, he withdraws from his evil act.
2) This is an indication that even human beings can cast evil thoughts in an
indirect manner. One should beware of such people and seek Allah's refuge
from them.
