Para 17 | Juz 17 - Complete: Surah Al-Anbiyaa | Al-Hajj (1-78)

Surah Al-Anbiya

Surah Al-Anbiya, also known as Surah 21, is a chapter in the Quran that discusses the conflict between the Prophet Muhammad and the chiefs of Makkah. It also answers doubts about the Prophet's prophethood and the doctrines of Tauhid and the Hereafter. The chapter's content helps to:

• Define Muhammad's role as a messenger within the Quranic context
• Integrate Muhammad's prophetic mission into a larger religious framework
• Draw examples of faith and righteousness through the narratives of earlier prophets 

According to a tradition from the Prophet of Islam, reciting Surah Al-'Anbiya' has several virtues, including:

• Allah will make reckoning easy
• Allah will not strictly reckon deeds on the Day of Hereafter
• Every prophet whose name is mentioned in the Quran will greet and shake hands with the reciter

Surah Al-Hajj

Surah Al-Hajj, chapter 22 of the Quran, is significant for a number of reasons:

• It discusses the purpose of the Ka'bah and the Hajj pilgrimage as a way to worship Allah
• It condemns idolatry and rejects idols as incapable of creating even a fly
• It grants Muslims permission to wage war against tyrants to establish a righteous way of life
• It discusses the Day of Judgement and the need for faith
• It discusses prayers, sacrifice, humbleness, and love and respect for the Ka'bah
• It discusses how to view Islam in comparison to other religions
• It discusses the command of Taqwa (fear of Allah and keeping one's duty towards Him) and Tawheed (Islamic monotheism)
• It mentions the Hour and its dreads and preparation for it
• It contains advice on different fields of life and encouragement to prayer, almsgiving, trust, and considering Allah

The Surah takes its name from the passage that talks about pilgrimage rituals (verses 25-37). The title of the Surah is strongly linked to its theme because the pilgrim prepares for Hajj by lawful expenditure
