Aⱬ-Ⱬâriyât (Surah 51)

Introduction

Like the previous sûrah, this Meccan sûrah makes the case for the Resurrection, citing some of Allah’s natural signs in the universe to prove His ability to bring the dead back life. Several examples are given of the deniers of judgment who were destroyed, which contrast with the reward of the believers. The Prophet (ﷺ) is urged to carry on reminding. Both the end of this sûrah and the beginning of the next pose a warning of the Day of Judgment. In the Name of Allah—the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful
