Al Hejr


Al-Ḥijr is the 15th sūrah. It has 99 verses.
The asbāb al-nuzūl is that it was revealed in Mecca revealed during the middle period and received by Muhammad shortly after sura Yusuf. Like other surahs of this period, it praises God. Parts of the verses 4-74 are preserved in the Ṣan‘ā’1 lower text.
This surah takes its name from its 80th āya, which refers to a pre-Islamic archaeological site called Hegra.

Summary

Central theme

This surah contains brief mentions of Tawhid, and provides an admonition to the disbelievers. The primary subjects of the surah are:
  1. cautioning the individuals who dismissed the message and
  2. providing solace and support to Muhammad,
The Quran never limits itself to mere rebuke; reproach and reprimand. It depends on its statute. The surah contains brief contentions for Tawhid and admonition in the tale of Adam and Satan.
