Ayah 1-4: Man's activities can be both good and bad, with different rewards and punishments.
Ayah 5-11: Self-purification can be achieved through sincerely spending in Allah's way.
Ayah 12-21: The successful are friends of Allah and people, generous, and fear God. The unsuccessful are enemies of Allah and people, stingy, and deny truth. For the successful, goodness is easy while evil is difficult. For the unsuccessful, evil is easy while goodness is difficult.
2. The inter connectivity of Surahs (89-94)
Al-Fajr –89 Characteristics of Serene and un serene soul and their different destination in Hereafter. Trials
are a test and must be met with Shukr, We should recognize Allah’s favors on us and give to the poor.
Al-Balad-90 Freedom of choice. Man is shown both paths; he can choose miserliness or generosity. Strive
to enter Jannah. Work for communal justice. Love of money is the main cause of communal in justice.
Ash-Shams –91 Success lies in purification, and failure to do so corrupts the soul. All humans have the
capacity to do good and bad, but their conscience is naturally disciplined towards God`s limits.
However, the one who sells his soul becomes transgressing and rebellious.
Al-Layl-92 Spend in Allah’s way and not to be miserly. Whichever path we choose, good or bad, Allah will make that
path easy for us. Strivings are divergent. Glad tidings to the one who seeks Allahs pleasure and is a charitable person.
Adh-Dhuha 93 Do dawah with the full belief that Allah is with us, facing hostilities in dawah is a fleeting moment;
the end would be everlasting good. We should be kind to the needy and recognize Allah’s favors vigorously. Glad
tidings to Rasolallah that he will be blessed with so much that he will be pleased with Allah SWT.
Alam Nashrah 94 If we are sincerely working in Allah’s way then He will provide us Sharah as-sadr. Dawah
is difficult at first, but it is followed by ease. We should be fully engulfed in Allah, even in our spare time.
3. The inter connectivity of Surahs (95-99)
Al-‘Alaq -96 First Revelation. Example of a worst of creation , an enemy of Islam's attitude of transgression.
Warns us not to be arrogant with knowledge and wealth but to use it to submit & worship Allah.
Al-Qadar –97 Importance of the night at which the Quran was revealed. Night of
respect and peace. Allah reveals and commands peace in this night.
Al-Bayinah_98 Purpose of revelation of Quran is to have completion of evidence stamped on both
branches of family of Ibrahim AS, the Bani Israeel and Bani Ismaeel. Those who accept can become best of
creation and attain paradise, while those who reject can become worst of creation and inmates of Hell fire.
At-Tin –95 Humans are created perfect; both internally and externally, their disbelieve
and evil deeds change that complexion and they become lowly, worst of creation.
Az-Zalzalah-99 The Day of Judgement. Accountability before
judgement. It describes the way every small atom of deed is seen.
4. The inter connectivity of Surahs (100-104)
Al-‘Adiyah -100 human greed. It describes the human love of wealth (quality). Materialism,
ingratitude and stinginess lead to bad deeds and gratitude leads towards good deeds.
Al-Qari’ah -101 The Day of Judgement. It describes the way every small atom of deed is
weighed. Motivation to collect good deeds so they can be weighed more than bad deeds.
At-Takathur –102 human greed. It describe the human love of wanting more (quantity). Save
ourselves from materialistic race and instead prepare for Here after. Good deeds(Gratitude
on blessings, complete conviction on Hereafter, contentment, sense of Responsibility) Bad
deeds(wealth acquisition, negligence, doubts, lack of sense of responsibility)
Al-‘Asr -103 Teaches us the value of time and the destructive outcome of time wasting. Teaches us the
formula for salvation: Eman, good deeds, exhorting to the truth and to patience. Save our self from Loss.
Al-Humazah-104 Materialistic, stingy and ill-mannered will be the losers. Surah teaches us social
etiquettes. It warns us against time wasting through fault finding, backbiting and ridiculing.
5. The inter connectivity of Surahs (105-108)
Quraish –106 Allah fulfills the promise of Prophet Ibrahim
(PBUH) because he ensures that they have prosperity.
Al-Ma’un -107 Shows that even though Allah fulfilled his end of the promise, the children of
Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH) that are currently in charge of the Kaabah are not fulfilling their end of the
promise (of being believers). Basically, this shows that they are not worthy of the gifts that came as
a result of the dua’a of Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH). This is the proof of their disqualification.
Al-Kauthar-108 Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is supposed to be the custodian of the Kaabah, the rightful heir to the
house of Allah that his father Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH) prayed for. He is supposed to be the custodian because he is
going to restore the legacy of Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH) and that legacy is two things fundamentally: Prayer and
sacrifice. Now there are two sides in the city, the Quraysh and the Prophet (PBUH). Allah is saying that only one of
them is worthy. So now there’s a clash. That clash is spelled out explicitly in Surah Al-Kafirun.
Al-Fil-105 Shows that Allah fulfilled the promise of Prophet
Ibrahim (PBUH) because he kept the city safe.
The dua’a of Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH) was for Mecca to be safe and it should be given all kinds of fruit.
Basically, safety and prosperity.
6. The inter connectivity of Surahs (109-111)
Al-Kafirun -109 Says that even though they both (Quraysh and the Prophet PBUH) go to the same place for
worship, they don’t have the same religion. This surah basically denounces the disbelievers. So now the
Prophet (PBUH) is an enemy to his tribe. Because he called them the disbelievers he let go of his loyalty to
his tribe and when that happened basically a war has sprung up between the two parties. And when there’s
a war someone will win, and someone will lose and the answer to that is shown in Surah An-Nasr.
An-Nasr –110 “The aid of Allah and victory is on its way.” The Prophet (PBUH) is
going to win this war and when he does, their religion is going to be gone and even
though they’re the majority and you're the minority, you’re going to see something
different. You’re going to see people coming into the religion in huge numbers.
Al-Masad -111 A small token of victory is a sign that the major victory is possible and
it’s on its way. Allah guarantees that He will get rid of one of his most staunch
enemies as a sign that the major victory is coming. That enemy is Abu Lahab.
7. The inter connectivity of Surahs (112-114)
Al-Ikhlas-112 Now that the promise of victory is there and a small guarantee of that victory is there,
then a question arises. When you’re fighting for a cause for a long time, you sometimes forget what
you were doing it for to begin with. Once victory was guaranteed it was essential to remind the
believers what this was all about. This was about the legacy of Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH) for which he
built the Kaabah, that there is only one god to be worshipped. That’s why you go back to the most
fundamental truth that Allah is One and everything is for Him and Him alone. Surah Al-Ikhlas is the
objective that should never be forgotten, this is above all else why the entire nation of Islam is there.
Al-Falaq-113 Now that Allah gave us the ultimate prize (Surah Al-Ikhlas) the problem arises that
sincerity, cleanliness, purity of intention, faith etc doesn’t always stay firm and healthy on its
own, it’s always under attack. To protect our faith from the outside we get Surah Al-Falaq.
An-Nas -114 To protect our faith from the inside we get Surah An-Nas. The Quran starts and
ends with a prayer. It starts with Surah Al-Fatihah and ends with Surah An-Nas. It begins with
a prayer for guidance, and it ends with two prayers that protect that guidance in our hearts.

11. Sanctity of Makah ---- Background & Importance of this city.
By the father and the children --- A reference to the hard work and
responsibility that parents endure in raising and training their children
For Humans world is a place of enduring & undergoing toil, labor &
hardship ---- hardships to fulfill one wish after another.
Ruku (Ayah 1-20)
12. Spending money for extravagance, fame-mongering & boasting.
One of the 5 questions at the day of Judgment ---- How you earn the money & where
you spent it?
Using Human skills in their proper place --- Eyes, tongue, lips, thinking and reasoning
The blessings of Allah Almighty and the two paths of good and evil.
13. Four characteristics to achieve moral sublimity --- Scaling the ascent
1) freeing someone's neck from slavery
2) giving food on a day of hunger
3) raising orphan near of kin
4) Helping the needy in distress
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet ﷺsaid,
"The one who looks after a widow or a poor
person is like a Mujahid (warrior) who fights
for Allah's Cause, or like him who performs
prayers all the night and fasts all day.“
(Bukhari)
Abu Huraira reported: A man came to
the Messenger of Allah, peace and
blessings be upon him, and he
complained about the hardness of his
heart. The Prophet said, “If you want
to soften your heart, feed the poor and
pat the head of the orphan.” (Musnad
Aḥmad)
14. The people with above four qualities ---- َةنَمۡيَمۡال ُب ٰح ۡصَا ---- Three more
attributes(Foremost/Saabiqoon/Awaloon)
1) Faith
2) standing by other believers(collectiveness) – تواصوا = Urge others
3) enjoining each other of Mercy & steadfastness ( Witness onto Mankind is
highest form of Mercy)
ةَمـَٔـۡشَمۡال ُب ٰح ۡصَا ---- People of the left hand --- Hell fire.
It was narrated from Ibn ‘Umar that the Messenger of
Allah ﷺsaid: “The believer who mixes with people and
bears their annoyance with patience will have a
greater reward than the believer who does not mix
with people and does not put up with their
annoyance.” (Ibne Majah)

Man`s conscience is naturally
disciplined towards God`s limits.
However, the one who sells his soul
becomes transgressing and rebellious
like peopleof Thamud.
Ayah 1-8
Ayah 9-10
Ayah 11-15
The human soul has been given the consciousness
of good and bad by natural inspiration. Inferring
reward and punishments of the akhirah based on
conscience and great physical signs.
Man`s success if founded upon the
purification of the soul and Allah
consciousness. Hopeless will be those
who suppress their conscience.
Like Thamud, nations and people that
rebel and transgress, act not God fearingly
but tyrannically, become targets for
punishment rather than reward.
17.
18. Swearing by 7 objects & phenomena ---- try to appreciate their value & purpose of
their creation.
Allah created Humans with balanced body and soul ---- man was not created a
sinner by birth and a criminal by instinct but on right and sound nature
Creator has endowed Humans with the ability to distinguish between good and
evil naturally.
Ruku (Ayah 1-15)
19. One who purifies his soul will prosper ---- Tazkiyah --- How ? Supplications
Failure = polluting the soul, suppressing the conscious and following the desires
Historical example --- People of Thamud ---- Killing the She camel ---- Disobedience
even after witnessing the signs from Allah(SWT)
For that crime their Lord rumbled down upon them, utterly razing them to the ground.
Wabisah bin Ma'bad (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
I went to Messenger of Allah ﷺand he asked me, "Have you
come to inquire about piety?" I replied in the affirmative. Then
he said, "Ask your heart regarding it. Piety is that which contents
the soul and comforts the heart, and sin is that which causes
doubts and perturbs the heart, even if people pronounce it
lawful and give you verdicts on such matters again and again."

Man`s activities and striving can be both good and
bad. The rewards and punishment of both are also
different. Self-purification can be achieved by
spending sincerely in the way of Allah.
Ayah 1-4 Ayah 5-77
Ayah 12-13
Ayah 14-21
Ayah 8-11
Self-purification can be achieved by
spending sincerely in the way of Allah.
Three characteristics of good
people: Friends of Allah,
friends of people, generosity.
Three characteristics of
bad people: enemies of
Allah, enemies of
mankind and stingy.
Allah administrates both guidance
and, reward and punishment.
The outcome of the wretched and,
God fearing is dissimilar. Generosity
leads to purification of the soul.
22.
23. Opposite things are different from each other, & their effects & results are mutually
contradictory, so are the aims & objects for which men are endeavoring &
struggling, different in their nature & contradictory with regard to their results.
The two diverse types of Human efforts divide Humankind into two groups.
Ruku (Ayah 1-21)
24. Characteristics of successful group
1) Refrain from wealth worship and spend in Allah’s way
2) Fear God & refrain from things which cause His displeasure
3) He believe in goodness which includes goodness of belief, morals and acts
For them adopting the way of taqwa, ascending the steep road becomes easy and
slipping into the abyss of moral depravities becomes difficult for them.
25. Unsuccessful group’s characteristics
1) Niggardliness
2) Behave with aversion to Allah
3) Denied the Truth of goodness
For them doing evil will become easy and doing good will become toilsome and
risky --- Moving towards Hell Fire.
The distinction between good and evil is in the nature of man. Then Allah sent
messengers and books to guide man.
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet ﷺsaid, "The example of
a miser and the one who gives in charity, is like the example
of two men wearing iron cloaks so tightly that their arms are
raised forcibly towards their collar-bones. So, whenever a
charitable person wants to give in charity, his cloak spreads
over his body so much so that it wipes out his traces, but
whenever the miser wants to give in charity, the rings (of the
iron cloak) come closer to each other and press over his
body, and his hands gets connected to his collarbones. Abu
Huraira heard the Prophet ﷺsaying. "The miser then tries to
widen it but in vain.“(Bukhari)
26. The God-fearing who spends his wealth to purify himself from miserliness of heart
without any showoff --- No favors in return for spending in Charity, just to please His
Lord --- They will be saved from Hell Fire
Example of Abu Bakr RA freeing 71 slaves.
We must evaluate our selves, why we give charity? Fundraising, tax return, mall sale
Abu Huraira reported God’s messenger as saying, “If
anyone gives as sadaqa the equivalent of a date from
something lawfully earned, for God accepts only what
is lawful, God will accept it with His right hand, then
foster it for the one who gave it as one of you fosters
his colt, till it becomes like a mountain.” (Bukhari and
Muslim.)
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet ﷺsaid,
"Every day two angels come down from
Heaven and one of them says, 'O Allah!
Compensate every person who spends in Your
Cause,' and the other (angel) says, 'O Allah!
Destroy every miser.’ “(Bukhari)
Narrated Abu Hurairah: A man asked
the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
Messenger of Allah, which sadaqah
(charity) is the best ? He replied:
(The best sadaqah is) that you give
something as sadaqah (charity)
when you are healthy, greedy,
expect survival and fear poverty, and
not that you postpone it until your
death. and then you say: For so-
and-so is such-and-such, and for so-
and-so is such-and-such, while it
was already for so-and-so. (Sunan
Abi Dawood)

131. The inter connectivity of Surahs (89-94)
Al-Fajr –89 Characteristics of Serene and un serene soul and their different destination in Hereafter. Trials
are a test and must be met with Shukr, We should recognize Allah’s favors on us and give to the poor.
Al-Balad-90 Freedom of choice. Man is shown both paths; he can choose miserliness or generosity. Strive
to enter Jannah. Work for communal justice. Love of money is the main cause of communal in justice.
Ash-Shams –91 Success lies in purification, and failure to do so corrupts the soul. All humans have the
capacity to do good and bad, but their conscience is naturally disciplined towards God`s limits.
However, the one who sells his soul becomes transgressing and rebellious.
Al-Layl-92 Spend in Allah’s way and not to be miserly. Whichever path we choose, good or bad, Allah will make that
path easy for us. Strivings are divergent. Glad tidings to the one who seeks Allahs pleasure and is a charitable person.
Adh-Dhuha 93 Do dawah with the full belief that Allah is with us, facing hostilities in dawah is a fleeting moment;
the end would be everlasting good. We should be kind to the needy and recognize Allah’s favors vigorously. Glad
tidings to Rasolallah that he will be blessed with so much that he will be pleased with Allah SWT.
Alam Nashrah 94 If we are sincerely working in Allah’s way then He will provide us Sharah as-sadr. Dawah
is difficult at first, but it is followed by ease. We should be fully engulfed in Allah, even in our spare time.
132. The inter connectivity of Surahs (95-99)
Al-‘Alaq -96 First Revelation. Example of a worst of creation , an enemy of Islam's attitude of transgression.
Warns us not to be arrogant with knowledge and wealth but to use it to submit & worship Allah.
Al-Qadar –97 Importance of the night at which the Quran was revealed. Night of
respect and peace. Allah reveals and commands peace in this night.
Al-Bayinah_98 Purpose of revelation of Quran is to have completion of evidence stamped on both
branches of family of Ibrahim AS, the Bani Israeel and Bani Ismaeel. Those who accept can become best of
creation and attain paradise, while those who reject can become worst of creation and inmates of Hell fire.
At-Tin –95 Humans are created perfect; both internally and externally, their disbelieve
and evil deeds change that complexion and they become lowly, worst of creation.
Az-Zalzalah-99 The Day of Judgement. Accountability before
judgement. It describes the way every small atom of deed is seen.
133. The inter connectivity of Surahs (100-104)
Al-‘Adiyah -100 human greed. It describes the human love of wealth (quality). Materialism,
ingratitude and stinginess lead to bad deeds and gratitude leads towards good deeds.
Al-Qari’ah -101 The Day of Judgement. It describes the way every small atom of deed is
weighed. Motivation to collect good deeds so they can be weighed more than bad deeds.
At-Takathur –102 human greed. It describe the human love of wanting more (quantity). Save
ourselves from materialistic race and instead prepare for Here after. Good deeds(Gratitude
on blessings, complete conviction on Hereafter, contentment, sense of Responsibility) Bad
deeds(wealth acquisition, negligence, doubts, lack of sense of responsibility)
Al-‘Asr -103 Teaches us the value of time and the destructive outcome of time wasting. Teaches us the
formula for salvation: Eman, good deeds, exhorting to the truth and to patience. Save our self from Loss.
Al-Humazah-104 Materialistic, stingy and ill-mannered will be the losers. Surah teaches us social
etiquettes. It warns us against time wasting through fault finding, backbiting and ridiculing.
134. The inter connectivity of Surahs (105-108)
Quraish –106 Allah fulfills the promise of Prophet Ibrahim
(PBUH) because he ensures that they have prosperity.
Al-Ma’un -107 Shows that even though Allah fulfilled his end of the promise, the children of
Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH) that are currently in charge of the Kaabah are not fulfilling their end of the
promise (of being believers). Basically, this shows that they are not worthy of the gifts that came as
a result of the dua’a of Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH). This is the proof of their disqualification.
Al-Kauthar-108 Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is supposed to be the custodian of the Kaabah, the rightful heir to the
house of Allah that his father Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH) prayed for. He is supposed to be the custodian because he is
going to restore the legacy of Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH) and that legacy is two things fundamentally: Prayer and
sacrifice. Now there are two sides in the city, the Quraysh and the Prophet (PBUH). Allah is saying that only one of
them is worthy. So now there’s a clash. That clash is spelled out explicitly in Surah Al-Kafirun.
Al-Fil-105 Shows that Allah fulfilled the promise of Prophet
Ibrahim (PBUH) because he kept the city safe.
The dua’a of Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH) was for Mecca to be safe and it should be given all kinds of fruit.
Basically, safety and prosperity.
135. The inter connectivity of Surahs (109-111)
Al-Kafirun -109 Says that even though they both (Quraysh and the Prophet PBUH) go to the same place for
worship, they don’t have the same religion. This surah basically denounces the disbelievers. So now the
Prophet (PBUH) is an enemy to his tribe. Because he called them the disbelievers he let go of his loyalty to
his tribe and when that happened basically a war has sprung up between the two parties. And when there’s
a war someone will win, and someone will lose and the answer to that is shown in Surah An-Nasr.
An-Nasr –110 “The aid of Allah and victory is on its way.” The Prophet (PBUH) is
going to win this war and when he does, their religion is going to be gone and even
though they’re the majority and you're the minority, you’re going to see something
different. You’re going to see people coming into the religion in huge numbers.
Al-Masad -111 A small token of victory is a sign that the major victory is possible and
it’s on its way. Allah guarantees that He will get rid of one of his most staunch
enemies as a sign that the major victory is coming. That enemy is Abu Lahab.
136. The inter connectivity of Surahs (112-114)
Al-Ikhlas-112 Now that the promise of victory is there and a small guarantee of that victory is there,
then a question arises. When you’re fighting for a cause for a long time, you sometimes forget what
you were doing it for to begin with. Once victory was guaranteed it was essential to remind the
believers what this was all about. This was about the legacy of Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH) for which he
built the Kaabah, that there is only one god to be worshipped. That’s why you go back to the most
fundamental truth that Allah is One and everything is for Him and Him alone. Surah Al-Ikhlas is the
objective that should never be forgotten, this is above all else why the entire nation of Islam is there.
Al-Falaq-113 Now that Allah gave us the ultimate prize (Surah Al-Ikhlas) the problem arises that
sincerity, cleanliness, purity of intention, faith etc doesn’t always stay firm and healthy on its
own, it’s always under attack. To protect our faith from the outside we get Surah Al-Falaq.
An-Nas -114 To protect our faith from the inside we get Surah An-Nas. The Quran starts and
ends with a prayer. It starts with Surah Al-Fatihah and ends with Surah An-Nas. It begins with
a prayer for guidance, and it ends with two prayers that protect that guidance in our hearts.
