The Koran Surah Summary
The Koran
Summary of Surahs: 1-5, 9-12, 19-24, 33, 42, 61, 65, 78, 81-82, 87, 107, 112
The first Surah is a prayer which Allah has taught to all those who want to study His book. If you sincerely want to benefit from the Quran, you should offer this prayer to the Lord of the Universe. One should begin the study of the Quran with a prayer to Him for guidance.
The second Surah is an invitation to the divine guidance, which consists of stories and incidents. Many historical events have been cited from Muslim traditions to admonish and advise Jews that their own good lies in accepting the Guidance revealed to the Holy Prophet.
The fourth Surah helps to teach Muslims the ways that unite people and make them firm and strong. Family is the nucleus of the community. Above all, the importance of the highest moral character has been emphasized.
The tenth Surah deals with the invitation to the Message, admonition and warning.
The eleventh Surah talks about the invitation to the Message, admonition and warning, with the difference that the warning is sterner. The invitation claims to obey the messenger of Allah, discard shirk, and worship Allah and Allah alone.
The twelfth Surah indicated that the Revelation was revealed during the last stage of the Holy Prophet's residence at Mecca, when the Quraish were considering the question of killing or exiling or imprisoning him.
The 22nd Surah is addressed to: (1) The mushriks of Mecca, (2) the wavering Muslims, and (3) the True Believers. The wavering Muslims, who had embraced Islam but were not prepared to endure any hardship in its way, have been admonished. On the one hand, they are ready to believe in Allah and become His servants provided they are given peace and prosperity but, on the other, if they meet with afflictions and hardships in His Way, they discard your Allah and cease to remain His servant.
The 33rd Surah discusses three important events which include the Battle of the Trench, which took place in

    In February 2013, Ingrid Mattson had published her book titled, The Story of the Qur'an, from Malden, MA. Mattson had written this book after she taught a course about the Qur'an at Hartford Seminary and wanted to provide an academic and comprehensible history and interpretation of the Qur'an. She pursued to make the book elaborate enough for anyone interested in the subject, whether or not they were general readers or Islamic researchers. In writing this book, Mattson's goal was to assist people in determining the meaning of the Qur'an and what it contains. The author wanted to provide additional interpretation on the subject and help some people avoid the general perspectives they perceive that the Qur'an contains, without knowing having…

    Sunni, Shiite, and Sufi are three branches of Islam. The Shiite and Sunni’s were the first really major division of the Islamic religion. This division was the result of a political argument over who should precede Muhammed. Sunni’s name means tradition and they believed the legitimacy of the Orthodox caliphates, and based everything off those beliefs. Sunni’s believe that Muhammad did not designate a successor. Now Shiite’s get their name from the word Shia, which means faction. They believe that Muhammad did leave a successor and it was the son-in-law and cousin of Muhammad named, Ali. They do not believe the same thing as Sunnis and disagree and do not get along with them. Now Sufi’s are” a contemplative school of Islam that aims to develop an individual 's consciousness of God though chanting, recitation of litanies, music and physical movement (SCRUGGS, 2010, para. )” Sufis find the importance by approaching the inner meaning of god through mysticism. They want to find the hidden meanings of the world they do not read or follow the Qur’an as strictly and as a result have closer relationships to other religions (SCRUGGS,…

    Islam, at the time of its origin, was the fastest and largest growing religion, unparalleled by the other religions present. The Muslim religion began in Arabia following the spiritual revelations of Muhammad, who believed himself to be the last prophet of Allah (God). Islam became a defining factor of the Arab empire’s culture and the faith spread just as far and even farther than the empire itself. Seeing as the Islamic religion has lasted up to modern times, it is no surprise that, since it began, changes have occurred or that some things, inevitably, have stayed the same. The changes in Islam include those in the belief of spiritual equality and general unity between those included in the umma, whereas one of the most prominent…
