Surah maps — Sura 61: As-Saff
- The Glorification of Allah · 1–1
The surah opens with everything in the heavens and earth glorifying Allah, the Mighty, the Wise — a prelude to the call for sincerity and steadfastness. - Rebuking Those Who Say What They Do Not Do · 2–4
A severe rebuke to the believers for saying what they do not do, followed by what Allah loves: those who fight in His cause in ranks as though a solid structure. - The Lesson of the Children of Israel · 5–9
A historical lesson: Moses was harmed by his people despite their knowledge of his mission; Jesus gave tidings of a Messenger named Ahmad to come after him and was rejected; the disbelievers try to extinguish Allah's light, but Allah will perfect it and make His religion prevail.- Moses and His People · 5–5
- Jesus's Tidings of Ahmad · 6–6
- Trying to Extinguish Allah's Light · 7–8
- The Triumph of the Religion · 9–9
- The Profitable Trade · 10–13
The offer of a trade that saves from painful punishment: belief in Allah and His Messenger and striving with wealth and lives — rewarded with forgiveness, Gardens of Eden, and near victory from Allah.- Belief and Striving · 10–11
- Reward and Near Victory · 12–13
- Be Helpers of Allah · 14–14
The surah closes calling the believers to be helpers of Allah as the disciples were helpers of Jesus — so Allah aided the believers against their enemy and they prevailed.
