Introduction

This Medinian sûrah was revealed close to the end of the Prophet’s life, instructing him that once his mission is complete and his message is embraced by many, he (ﷺ) should be ready to meet his Creator. A deterring example of those who rejected his message is given in the next sûrah. In the Name of Allah—the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

In the Name of Allah—the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful.

Nearing the Journey’s End

1. When Allah’s (ultimate) help comes and the victory (over Mecca is achieved), 2. and you (O Prophet) see the people embracing Allah’s Way in crowds, 3. then glorify the praises of your Lord and seek His forgiveness, for certainly He is ever Accepting of Repentance.
إِذَا جَآءَ نَصْرُ ٱللَّهِ وَٱلْفَتْحُ
١
وَرَأَيْتَ ٱلنَّاسَ يَدْخُلُونَ فِى دِينِ ٱللَّهِ أَفْوَاجًا
٢
فَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ وَٱسْتَغْفِرْهُ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ تَوَّابًۢا

Study Surah An-Naṣr with context

Surah An-Naṣr is short enough to read in full, but it still deserves careful study. Read the Arabic text first, then review the translation, and then repeat the verses slowly with recitation. This helps the chapter stay connected to both meaning and sound.

For a stronger reading routine, notice the main theme of the surah, the words that repeat, and the way each verse builds on the previous one. You can also compare this chapter with related Quran topics, listen to the audio version, or use the Kids Quran page when explaining the meaning to younger readers.
