Explanatory Note

The surah then takes them a step lower than that of the creation of either themselves or the world around them. It asks them whether they own God's treasures or have control of these so as to be able to cause benefit and harm: "Do they possess your Lord's treasures? Or are they in ultimate control?" If they make no such claim, then who owns these treasures and controls all things? The Qur'an says that God is the One who gives in plenty or in small measure, and who determines all affairs in the universe. This is the only explanation of what happens in the universe.

7. Period of Revelation

[ edit ]

From the internal evidence of the subject matter it appears that this Surah too was revealed in the same stage of the Prophet’s life at Makkah in which the Surah 51: adh-Dhariyat (The Scattering Winds) was revealed. While going through it one can clearly feel that during the period of its revelation the Prophet was being showered with objections and accusations but there is no evidence yet to show that severe persecution of the Muslims had started.
