Explanatory Note

It was always a once-only command to bring about the terrible fate of communities that rejected the truth of God's message. The surah reminds its addressees of the fates suffered by communities who, like them, rejected the truth: "We destroyed people like you in the past. Will anyone take heed? Everything they do is noted in their records. Every single thing, small or great, is recorded." (Verses 51-53) Those fates are mentioned in the surah, but people need to take heed and think of the likely outcome of the position they take towards God's message.

7. Period of Revelation

[ edit ]

The incident of the ‘splitting of the moon’ (shaqq-al-Qamar) that has been mentioned in this Surah, determines its period of revelation precisely. The traditionists and commentators are agreed that this incident took place at Mina in Makkah about five years before the Prophet’s migration (Hijra) to Madīnah.
