He'll be back." And I ambushed him for the third time. And he came and began to grab food. Catching him, I said: "I will definitely take you to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and this is the last third time when you assure that you will not return, and then come again." He prayed: "Leave me alone, I will teach you words by which Allah will benefit you." I asked: "What are these words?" He replied: "When you go to sleep, then read the ayat" Al-Kursi "- (Allah - there is no deity except Him, the Living, the Eternal), until you finish the verse, and, verily, Allah will never leave you without a protector and will never come close Satan to you until the morning comes."

He answered, "Jinn," and said again, "Give me your hand," and he held out his hand, and his hand was a dog's, and his hair was also a dog's. I asked: "Is this the image of a genie?" He said: "The jinn have learned that there is a man stronger than me among you." I again asked: "What brought you?" I asked: “What will save us from you?” The jinn replied: “This is the verse that is in Surah “The Cow” - (Allah - there is no deity except Him, the Living, the Eternal), whoever reads it, when the evening comes, he will be protected from us until morning, and whoever reads it when he gets up in the morning, he will be protected from us until evening."

Any person, if he is a believer, regardless of his religion, seeks help and support from higher powers. Most often at such moments he turns to sacred texts. After all, many people know that the words of prayers or holy scriptures can help even in the most difficult cases. In Islam, in addition to the obligatory five times prayer, the reading of the holy book is considered an obligatory action. Believers listen and read surahs from the Koran for every day. They perform prayers for various purposes.

Prayer for every day

Dua for each day may be different. Or the same ones are repeated. The most famous and important prayer word was the ayat Korsi (ayat-al-Kursi). Islamic theologians advise reading it daily at any time and in any situation. Before leaving the house or before an important matter. When going to bed or vice versa, when a person woke up.

For example, after the night prayer, Isha is advised to read the last verses of Surah Korov. And on Fridays, the verses of Al-Kahf. Every evening you can read Yasin. According to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), Allah will forgive the reader of all sins. Whoever reads Surah Ad-Dukhan in the evening, 70 thousand angels will ask for it. Or read the last 3 verses of Surah Al-Hashr in the morning. Then until the evening the angels will pray for him.

And if death overtakes him at this time, then he will die as a martyr. Whatever suras a Muslim reads every day, it will in any case be good for him. This is why reading the Quran is so important in Islam.

Basically, people try to find a prayer with the help of which everything will be “good” in their life. But the semantics of this word is different for everyone. And in fact, there are several main trends in Islam to improve its existence. Therefore, when turning to God in prayer, you need to ask specifically about this:

It is also useful to ask for knowledge every day. To do this, you can read 114 ayat 20 of Surah Ta Ha. Sitting down at the table and after the end of the meal, words of thanks are also pronounced. It is necessary to read suras and verses before going to bed or in the morning. On the way to the mosque, for a walk or on important business. You can pray in any language and with any words. The main thing is that the dua comes from the heart and with sincere faith in the omnipotence of Allah Almighty.

House cleansing

In the Muslim world, they believe in a parallel world of genies. It is they who can spoil the lives of people in their own home. Cause various troubles. Quarrels and enmity between native people begin in the family. Jinn also have believers and non-believers. And they can do a lot of harm to a person. Sometimes genies take over the body and torment the soul.

In such cases, reading the Quran helps to cleanse the house. Cleaning is carried out under special conditions:

• General cleaning must be done.
• Ghusl (full ablution).
• Wear clean clothes.
• Read the Qur'an slowly, pronouncing the words clearly.

Adhan also helps to clean the apartment. When the call to prayer sounds Satan and genies are leaving this place. The most effective surah from the Quran for cleansing the house is Al-Baqara, and surah Al-Imran is also read for this purpose.

The suras that have a beneficial effect on the atmosphere at home and family relationships are An-Nur or Ar-Rahman.

Description of Surah an-Nas

Surahs from the Qur'an have been sent down for this mankind. From Arabic, the word "an-Nas" is translated as "People". The Almighty sent down a sura in Mecca, it contains 6 verses. The Lord turns to the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) with the requirement to always resort to His help, to seek only protection from evil from Allah. By "evil" is meant not so much the sorrows that accompany the earthly path of people, but the imperceptible evil that we ourselves commit, following the lead of our own passions, desires, whims. The Almighty calls this evil “the evil of Satan”: human passions are a genie-tempter who constantly tries to lead a person astray from the righteous path. Shaitan disappears only at the mention of Allah: that is why it is so important to read regularly and.

It must be remembered that the devil uses to deceive people those vices that are hidden in themselves, to which they often strive with all their hearts. Only an appeal to the Almighty can save a person from the evil that lives in him.

Surah Al-Ikhlas

Very short, easy to remember, but at the same time, extremely effective and useful sura. To listen to Al-Ikhlas in Arabic, you can use video or MP3. The word "Al-Ikhlas" in Arabic means "Sincerity". Sura is a sincere declaration of love and devotion to Allah.

Transcription (phonetic sound of the sura in Russian):

Bismi-llayahi-rrahmaani-rrahiim

1. Kul hu Allah ahad.
2. Allah s-samad.
3. Lam yalid wa lam yulad
4. Walam yakullahu kufuan ahad.

Semantic translation into Russian:

1. Say: "He is Allah, the One,
2. Allah is self-sufficient.
3. He did not give birth and was not born,
4. and there is none equal to Him.”

Description of Surah Al-Ikhlas

Sura "Sincerity" Allah sent down to the Prophet in Mecca. Al-Ikhlas contains 4 verses. Muhammad told his disciples that once he was mockingly asked about his attitude towards the Almighty. The answer was Surah Al-Ikhlas, which contains the statement that Allah is Self-sufficient, that He is One and Only in His perfection, that He has always been, and there is no one equal to Him in strength.

With the requirement to tell them about His God, the pagans who professed polytheism turned to the Prophet (peace be upon him). The literal translation of the question they used was "What is your Lord made of?". For paganism, a material understanding of God was common: they created idols from wood and metal, worshiped animals and plants. The answer of Muhammad (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) shocked the pagans so much that they abandoned the old faith and recognized Allah.

Many hadiths point to the benefits of Al-Ikhlas. Within the framework of one article it is impossible to name all the advantages of the sura, there are so many of them. Here are just the most important ones:

In one hadith it is said how Muhammad (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) turned to people with the following question: “Isn’t each of you able to read a third of the Qur’an in a night?”. The townspeople were amazed and asked how this was possible. The Prophet replied: “Read Surah Al-Ikhlas! It is equal to one third of the Qur'an." This hadeeth suggests that in the sura "Sincerity" so much wisdom is concentrated, how much can not be found in any other text. But not one thinking person is 100% sure that this is exactly what the Prophet said, word for word, so peace be upon him, even if this hadith (the word "hadith" is translated from Arabic as "story") is good in meaning, because if he (peace be upon him) him) did not say so, then this is a slander and a lie on the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).

It is important to know: all these hadiths may not be reliable. Hadiths must be looked at for their correspondence with the Qur'an. If a hadith contradicts the Qur'an, then it must be discarded, even if it somehow manages to be put into collections of reliable hadith.

Another hadith retells the words of the Prophet to us: “If a believer is fifty times every day, then on the Day of Resurrection a voice from above will be heard over his grave: “Arise, O praiser of Allah, enter Paradise!”. In addition, the Messenger said: “If a person reads Surah Al-Ikhlas a hundred times, then Almighty Allah will forgive him the sins of fifty years, provided that he does not commit four types of sins: the sin of bloodshed, the sin of acquisitiveness and hoarding, the sin of debauchery and the sin drinking alcohol." Saying a Surah is a work that a person does for the sake of Allah. If this work is done with diligence, the Almighty will surely reward the one who prays.

Hadiths repeatedly point to the reward that is received for reading the sura "Sincerity". The reward is proportional to the number of readings of the prayer, the time spent on this. One of the most famous hadiths contains the words of the Messenger, demonstrating the incredible significance of Al-Ikhlas: “If anyone reads Surah Al-Ikhlas once, he will be overshadowed by the grace of the Almighty. Whoever reads it twice, then he and his whole family will be under the shadow of grace. If someone reads it three times, then he himself, his family and his neighbors will receive grace from above. Whoever reads it twelve times, Allah will grant twelve palaces in Paradise. Whoever reads it twenty times, he [on the Day of Judgment] will walk with the prophets like this (saying these words, the Prophet joined and raised his middle and index fingers) Whoever reads it a hundred times, the Almighty will forgive all his sins for twenty-five years except for the sin of bloodshed and the sin of default. Whoever reads it two hundred times, the sins of fifty years will be forgiven. Anyone who reads this surah four hundred times will get a reward equal to the reward of four hundred martyrs who shed blood and whose horses were wounded in battle. Whoever reads Surah Al-Ikhlas a thousand times, he will not die without seeing his place in Paradise, or until he is shown it.

Another hadith contains a kind of recommendation for people who are going on a journey or are already on the road. Travelers are instructed to recite Al-Ikhlas eleven times while grasping the doorposts of their house with both hands. If this is done, then the person will be protected on the way from shaitans, their negative impact and attempts to instill fear and uncertainty in the soul of the traveler. In addition, the recitation of the sura "Sincerity" is a guarantee of a safe return to places dear to the heart.

It is important to know: no sura in itself can help a person in any way, only Allah can help a person and believers rely on Him! And many hadiths, as we see, contradict the Koran - the direct speech of Allah Himself!

There is another option for reading Surah Al-Ikhlas - in combination with Al-Nas and Al-Falak. Each prayer is said three times. Reading these three suras is a protection from evil forces. As the prayer is said, it is necessary to blow on the person we want to protect. Surah is especially useful for children. If the baby cries, screams, kicks his legs, there are signs of the evil eye, be sure to try Al-Ikhlas, Al-Nas and Al-Falak. The effect will be stronger if you read the suras before going to bed.

Sura Yasin Allah sent Muhammad (peace be upon him) in Mecca. In this text, the Almighty informed the Prophet (sallallahu ‘aleihi wa sallam) that he is the messenger of the Lord, and from the moment of revelation, his task is to enlighten, teach and exhort the people, vegetating in the abyss of polytheism. The sura also speaks of those who dare to disobey the instructions of Allah, who refuse to accept the Messenger - these unfortunate ones will face severe punishment and universal censure.

semantic translation:

“Allah (God, Lord) ... There is no god but Him, the Eternally Living, Existing. Neither sleep nor slumber will overtake him. He owns everything in heaven and on earth. Who will intercede before Him, except by His will!? He knows what was and what will be. No one is able to comprehend even particles from His knowledge, except by His will. Heaven and Earth are embraced by the course (Great Throne) of Him, and He does not bother to care for them [About everything that is in our galactic system]. He is the Most High [by all characteristics above everything and everything], the Great [His greatness has no limits]!” (see, Holy Quran, sura “al-Baqarah”, ayat 255 (2:255)).

Ayat Al-Kursi is included in Sura Al-Baqara (translated from Arabic - a cow). According to the account in the sura, ayat 255th. It should be said right away that many prominent theologians believe that Al-Kusri is a separate sura, and not an ayat. Be that as it may, the Messenger stated that the verse is the key one in the Koran, it contains the most important statement that distinguishes Islam from other religions - the dogma of monotheism. In addition, the verse gives evidence of the greatness and infinite nature of the Lord. In this sacred text, Allah is called "Ismi 'azam" - this name is considered the most worthy name of God.

Instructional video for the correct pronunciation of Ayat Al Kursi

It is important to know: you should not read the Quran loudly in a chant, and even more so compete in it - while listening to such melodies you will fall into a trance and you will not understand the most important thing - the meaning that Allah conveyed to mankind to observe the Quran and meditate on His verses.

Surah Al-Baqarah

- the second and most voluminous in the Qur'an. The sacred text contains 286 verses that reveal the very essence of religion. The sura contains the teachings of Allah, the instruction of the Lord to Muslims, a description of how they should behave in various situations. In general, we can say that Surah Al-Baqarah is a text that regulates the whole life of a believer. The document says almost everything: about revenge, about the distribution of inheritance among the relatives of the deceased, about the use of alcoholic beverages, about playing cards and dice. Much attention is paid to the issues of marriage and divorce, the trading side of life, and relations with debtors.

From the Arabic language "Al-Baqara" is translated as "Cow". This name is associated with a parable, which is given in the sura. The parable tells about the Israelite cow and Musa, peace be upon him. In addition, the text contains many stories about the life of the Prophet and his followers. In "Al-Baqara" it is directly stated that the Koran is a guide in the life of a Muslim, which is given to him by the Almighty. In addition, in the sura there is a mention of believers who have received favor from Allah, as well as those who have angered the Almighty with disobedience and a tendency to disbelief.

Let us remember the words of the Great Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): “Do not turn your houses into graves. Shaitan flees from the house where Surah al-Baqarah is being recited. This exceptionally high assessment of the Surah "The Cow" allows us to consider it the most important in the Koran. The great significance of the sura is also emphasized by another hadith: “Read the Qur'an, because on the Day of Resurrection he will come and will intercede for his own. Read two blooming suras - suras "al-Baqara" and "Ali Imran", because on the Day of Resurrection they will appear like two clouds or two flocks of birds lined up in rows and will intercede for their own. Read Surah al-Baqarah, because there is grace and abundance in it, and without it there is sadness and annoyance, and sorcerers cannot cope with it.

In Surah Al-Baqarah, the last 2 verses are considered the main ones:

• 285. The messenger and the believers believed in what was sent down to him from the Lord. They all believed in Allah, His angels, His Scriptures and His messengers. They say, "We make no distinction between His messengers." They say: “Listen and obey! We ask for Your forgiveness, our Lord, and we will arrive to You.
• 286. Allah does not burden a person beyond his capacity. He will get what he has acquired, and what he has acquired will be against him. Our Lord! Do not punish us if we have forgotten or made a mistake. Our Lord! Do not place on us the burden that You placed on our predecessors. Our Lord! Do not burden us with what we cannot afford. Be kind to us! Forgive us and have mercy! You are our Protector. Help us to prevail over unbelieving people.

In addition, the sura contains the verse "Al-Kursi", which we have quoted above. The great meaning and incredible importance of Al-Kursi has been repeatedly emphasized by leading theologians who referred to famous hadiths. The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, calls on Muslims to read these verses, teach them, teach them to their family members, wives and children. After all, the last two verses “Al-Bakar” and “Al-Kursi” are a direct appeal to the Almighty.

Interesting facts about Surah Al-Fatiha

Undoubtedly, the sura "Al-Fatiha" is the greatest sura of the Koran. This is confirmed by the epithets that it is customary to designate this unique text: “Opening Book”, “Mother of the Quran”, etc. The Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him!) repeatedly pointed out the special significance and value of this sura. For example, the Prophet said the following: "Whoever did not read the Opening Book (i.e. Surah al-Fatiha), he did not perform a prayer." In addition, the following words belong to him: “Whoever makes a prayer without reading the Opening Book in it, then it is not complete, not complete, not complete, not finished.” In this hadith, special attention is drawn to the threefold repetition of the word "not complete." The Prophet framed the phrase in such a way as to increase the impact on the listener, to emphasize that without reading Al-Fatih, prayer may not reach the Almighty.

Every Muslim should know that the Al-Fatiha sura is an indispensable element of prayer. The text deserves the honor of being in front of any sura of the Qur'an. "Al-Fatiha" is the most read sura in the Islamic world, the verses from it are pronounced constantly and in each of the rak'ahs.

One of the hadiths claims that the Almighty will reward the reader of the Al-Fatiha surah to the same extent as the person who read 2/3 of the Koran. Another hadith quotes the words of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him!): “I received 4 things from the special treasures of ‘Arsh (Throne), from which no one ever received anything. These are Surah Fatiha, Ayatul Kursi, the last verses of Surah Bakara and Surah Kausar. The colossal significance of Surah Al-Fatiha is also emphasized by the following hadith: “Four times Iblis had to grieve, cry and tear his hair out: the first when he was cursed, the second when he was driven from heaven to earth, the third when the Prophet (sallallahu ' alayhi wa sallam) received the fourth prophecy when Surah Fatiha was sent down.

“Muslim Sharif” contains one very revealing hadith, which cites the words of the Great Prophet (may Allah bless him and be present”: “Today one of the doors of heaven opened, which had never opened before. And one angel descended from it, who had never before descended. And the angel said: "Receive the good news about two nurs that have never been given to anyone before you. One is the sura "Fatiha", and the second is the end of the sura "Baqarah (the last three verses)".

What is the first thing that comes to mind in this hadeeth? Of course, the fact that the suras "Fatiha" and "Bakara" are called "nurs" in it. Translated from Arabic, this word means "light." On the Day of Judgment, when Allah will judge people for their earthly path, the read suras will become a light that will attract the attention of the Almighty and allow Him to separate the righteous from the sinners.

"Al-Fatiha" is "Ismi A'zam", that is, a text that should be read in any situation. Even in ancient times, doctors noticed that the sura written in rose oil on the bottom of porcelain dishes makes the water exceptionally healing. The patient needs to drink water for 40 days. In a month he will feel relief, God willing. To improve the condition with a toothache, headache, pain in the abdomen, the sura must be read exactly 7 times.

And remind, for the reminder benefits believers. (Quran, 51:55)

Sura (Arabic سورة) is one of the 114 chapters of the Quran. All surahs of the Qur'an, except the ninth, begin with the words of the basmala "In the Name of Allah, the Gracious and Merciful" (arab. Each sura consists of verses (revelations). The number of verses in suras varies from 3 (suras Al-Asr, Al-Kawthar, An-Nasr) to 286 (suras Al-Baqarah). Starting from the second sura of al-Baqarah, the suras in the Qur'an are arranged approximately in descending order of the number of verses.

According to the place of sending down, the suras are divided into Meccan and Medina suras. The division of surahs into Meccan and Medinan is, first of all, a consequence of stylistic and thematic considerations. The classification of suras into these periods is based on factors such as the length of the verse and the presence or absence of certain key concepts or words (for example, ar-Rahman as the name of God).

There are three opinions in the division of suras into Meccan and Medinan:

1. Taking into account the time of sending down.

• Meccan suras: everything that was sent down before the Hijra (migration), even if outside of Mecca. This is until the moment when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) entered Medina.
• Suras of Medina: everything that was sent down after the Hijra, even if not in Medina. Even if it was sent down in Mecca. This opinion was expressed by Yahya ibn Salam Basri (died 200 AH).

2. Taking into account the place of sending down.

• Meccan: everything that was sent down in Mecca and its environs, like Mina, Arafat, Hudaybiya.
• Medina: everything that was sent down in Medina and its environs, like Uhud, Quba.

3. Considering who is being contacted.

• Meccan: where there is an appeal to the inhabitants of Mecca.
• Medina: where there is an appeal to the inhabitants of Medina.

The meaning and origin of the word "sura"

The linguistic meaning of the word “sura”, which is relevant for the Koran, was studied by the outstanding orientalist and Turkologist, Doctor of Philology, Professor G. Kh. Akhatov.

The researcher put forward a number of assumptions:

• this word means a simplified form of the word “sura”, pronounced with the consonant sound hamza (ء), and meaning “leftovers” or “remnants of food on the dishes”, because the sura of the Qur'an is considered to be its separate piece / separate part. However, this assumption, as Professor G. Kh. Akhatov established, has a serious obstacle: the writing of the letter hamza was invented 2 centuries after the appearance of the Koran, Khalil ibn Ahmad al-Farahidi, taking the letter “ayn” (ع) as a basis and inventing hamza (ء ).
• the word "sura" comes from the root "sur", which can mean "enclosure" and "fortress wall". That is, the suras firmly guard, protect the verses and unite them into one whole.
• the word "sura" can come from the word "savor", from the Arabized Persian word "dastvara - dastband" ("bracelet"). From time immemorial, the bracelet was considered a symbol of eternity, continuity, integrity and morality, and, proceeding from this, the sura, as it were, tightly rings the verses of the Holy Quran with spiritual morality.
• the word "sura" often denotes a high status, the highest position. The divine word, even within the limits of one sura, has the highest position.
• the word "sura" could well be derived from the word "tasavvur" in the meaning of the word "ascent": the verses of the sura create a spiritual ascent...
• the word "sura" (سورة) may be a corruption of the word "sura" (صورة), meaning "katrinka".

As a result of a comprehensive linguistic and comparative historical analysis, Professor G. Kh. Akhatov came to an objective scientific conclusion that the word "sura" in the linguistic sense has not any one, but a polyphonic (multi-valued) meaning, that is, according to the scientist, “Sura” is a chapter of the Koran, which performs not only dividing functions by “high walls”, ranking the text, but to a greater extent bears “architectural” - spiritual and energy functions that contribute to the formation of a special internal spiritual energy of believers when reading verses.

Meccan suras

Meccan suras (Arabic آية مكية - Meccan verses) are chronologically early suras of the Koran, sent down, according to Islamic tradition, to the Prophet Muhammad before the Hijra.

Features of Meccan suras

1. All suras beginning with single letters, except for suras "Al-Baqarah" and "Alu Imran", are Meccan.
2. All suras in which there is an instruction to bow to the earth are Meccan.
3. All suras that contain the word كَلَّا (But no!), are Meccan, because many Meccans were proud and arrogant. The use of this word put them in their place and seemed to warn such people.
4. All the surahs that tell about the prophets and ancient communities, except for the surah Al-Baqarah, are Meccan.
5. All the surahs that tell about the story of the venerable Adam and Satan, except for the surah Al-Baqarah, are Meccan.
6. Almost all surahs that contain the phrase يَا اَيُّهَا النَّاسُ and, at the same time, do not have the phrase يَا اَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ امَنُوا are Meccan.
7. Most of the short suras are represented by Meccan suras.

Theme of the Meccan suras

1. In Meccan suras, faith in Allah is often recalled.
2. The fallacy of polytheism is reported, it is said that this is blind following, it is said that this path that the ancestors followed is wrong, and the Qur'an also calls for the use of one's own mind.
3. Themes such as the greatness of Allah, His power, the importance of obedience to Him, as well as belief in the Day of Judgment come to the fore in the Makkan suras.
4. The Meccan suras describe in detail the confrontations of the prophets who lived earlier with their peoples.
5. These surahs deal in various forms with topics such as moral principles, righteousness, good deeds, the importance of visiting relatives, good relations with parents, the rights of neighbors, the importance of controlling the tongue and heart, as well as such sins as unbelief, oppression of other people, sinfulness, burying children alive, murder, adultery and the immorality of it all.

Meccan Surah Style

Based on the criteria taken from the Koran itself, namely on its vocabulary and style, the German orientalist G. Weyl, followed by T. Nöldeke, divide the suras of the Meccan revelations into three groups.

1. The first group includes literary perfect suras. Sublime style, adorned with bold images, short and very rhythmic verses contain simple yet strict instructions. The meaning of these verses is often unclear, especially when subtle allusions are made. In addition, spells are very common in this group, based in most cases on natural phenomena, but many of them also remain a mystery. These spells call a person to think about his salvation. Short, expressing the confusion of the feelings of the sura, not all were understood by the contemporaries of Muhammad. Sura 96 ​​is considered the oldest of them.
2. The suras of the second group are calmer, the spells in them gradually give way to the formula: “This is the revelation of Allah!” or the command: "Say!", with which Allah addresses his Prophet. The prediction of the Last Judgment recedes into the background before the proclamation of monotheism: Muhammad decisively breaks with idolaters. The suras are getting longer. In them there are some, still vague instructions regarding the rules of conduct and rituals, allusions to the prophets that preceded Muhammad.
3. There are more and more such tales about the prophets in the third group of Meccan suras, which is, apparently, a vague reflection of the legends of the Jewish haggadah (part of the Talmud, which includes stories, parables and legends). Such tales occupy approximately 1500 verses, that is, one fourth of the Qur'an. Their goal is to show the infidels how in the old days God struck people who refused to listen to the prophets. This repetitive third group of suras, written in a less confident style and more rhetorical than poetic, is the least remarkable part of the book, despite the fact that the legends have a folklore interest. The incantations so frequent in the older suras finally disappear. Allah is often denoted by the word rahman ("merciful"). In later suras this word disappears. One orientalist explains it this way: Muhammad must have feared that the believers would not see in this rahman a deity other than Allah. In the Hudaybi agreement, the Meccans, abandoning the formula containing this name, retained the old formula: "In your name, O Allah!"

So, the first group of suras of poetic tone corresponds to the first four years of Muhammad's activity; the second group, in a semi-poetic-half-rhetorical tone, for the fifth and sixth years, and the third group, in a rhetorical tone, contains the surahs of the revelations of the sixth year BC. This is the classification of the Meccan portions of the Qur'an adopted by Nöldeke. “Pictures of the end of the world and the Last Judgment, written in bright colors, calls to prepare yourself for them, leaving unbelief and worldly life, stories about the fate of ancient peoples and their attitude towards the prophets who were sent to them, a story about the creation of the world and the miraculous creation of man for evidence of the omnipotence of God and the dependence on him of every creature that he can destroy and resurrect at his own will - such is the content of the oldest parts of this book of revelations ”(Goldzier).

Suras of Medina

The Medina suras, or Medina chapters of the Qur'an, are those late suras that, according to Islamic tradition, were sent down to the prophet in Medina, after the Hijra of Muhammad from Mecca. These suras appeared when the Muslims were in greater numbers than when they were an oppressed minority, as in Mecca.

Features of the Medinan suras

1. In these suras, the principles of law, punishment, inheritance issues, social rules, and principles of state law are developed.
2. These suras give permission to conduct military operations and describe the provisions related to this.
3. All surahs that speak of hypocrites, except for the surah Al-Ankabut, are Medinan.
4. The Medinan suras deal with topics such as dealing with Jews and Christians, as well as attempts to call them to the truth and renounce their delusions.

The style and themes of the Medinan suras

These suras of the Medinan period were written by a religious and political legislator, who was no longer supposed to preach his religion, but to systematize religious teaching and at the same time lay the foundation of a new society. In style, these suras hardly differ from the Meccan suras of the third group, except for new words introduced in various prescriptions. On the question of the last verse of the revelations, opinions are divided. Many authors agree that this is verse 5 of sura 5.

As for the content, there are some hints in the suras about the events that took place then. Thus, there is a call to properly respect the Prophet and his family; praising those who die on the “path of Allah”, attacks against the “hypocrites”, these Pharisees of Islam, and against the Christian trinity (for example, sura 4, 169: “After all, the Messiah, Isa, the son of Maryam, is only the messenger of Allah and His word, which He threw to Maryam, and His spirit… do not say three!.. Verily, Allah is only one God.” Indeed, Jesus appears only in the Medina Suras); there are also attacks against the Jews. With regard to the Jews, it should be recalled that in the Meccan suras, Abraham appears only as one of the prophets who preceded Muhammad, without any connection with the Arabs. In the Medina suras, after Muhammad's break with the Jews, Abraham's activities began to be associated directly with the Arabs: according to the Koran, he and his son Ismail created not only the Meccan sanctuary, but also a pure original religion, the very one that Muhammad seeks to restore and which the Jews distorted and Christians.

Precepts for religious, civil and criminal cases are collected mainly in suras 2, 4 and 5, numbering more than 500 verses (about a tenth of the Qur'an). However, no code of laws can be found in the Medinan suras in

in the truest sense of the word, and it must be reiterated that, contrary to a widely spread misconception, Muslims do not administer justice according to the Qur'an. It should also not be thought that the Medinan suras are exclusively legislative in nature. Some of the verses in them refer to some of the most beautiful passages in the Qur'an (as in Sura 2, 135 et seq.). Some other verses are quite clear about the religious beliefs and duties of an exemplary Muslim (for example, Sura 2, 172: “It is not piety that you turn your faces towards the east and west, but piety is who believes in Allah, and on the last day, and into angels, and into scripture, and into prophets, and gave property, despite love for him, relatives and orphans, and the poor, and travelers, and those who ask, and slaves, and stood up prayer, and gave purification, - and fulfilling their covenants when they make them, and those who are patient in adversity and affliction and in time of trouble, these are those who were truthful, it is they who fear God.

Some Surahs of the Quran

• Sura "ad-Duha" is a remedy for fear of the Day of Judgment. It is quite natural that a person has a fear of the upcoming day of the Great Judgment, because it is there that our future will be decided, extending into eternity. However, the Blessed Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) suggested a good means of getting rid of such fear, saying: “For the one who reads the surah “ad-Duha”, at night seventy thousand angels will ask for forgiveness until the morning.”
• Surah al-Fatiha is a salvation from any difficulty. As the great theologian Hassan Basri said, the Quran gathered all the knowledge revealed in the scriptures earlier, and "Fatiha" is the basis of the Quran. Therefore, many scholars, including Hasan Basri, advised the faithful to seek salvation from the raging storm of life's adversities in this sura.
• Surah al-Wakiy'a - salvation from poverty. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) paid great attention to the issue of mutual assistance and support between the representatives of the ummah. He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) told the believers about the increase in the property of those who sincerely give alms and pay zakat, and about the obligation of every believer to help his brother in faith, who, due to a combination of certain circumstances, found himself in a difficult financial situation. In order to get out of a state of need, the Blessed Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) also advised reading the surah al-Waqi'a: “If a person reads the surah al-Waqi'a every night, he will never be touched by poverty. Al-Waqiy'a is the Surah of Wealth, read it and teach it to your children."
• Surah al-Mulk - salvation from the torment in the grave. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) read this sura every night and said to others at the same time: “” There is a sura of thirty verses in the Qur'an that will intercede for the person who read them and help him get forgiveness. This Surah is al-Mulk."
