22. وَأَمْدَدْنَٰهُم بِفَٰكِهَةٍۢ وَلَحْمٍۢ مِّمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ

23. يَتَنَٰزَعُونَ فِيهَا كَأْسًۭا لَّا لَغْوٌۭ فِيهَا وَلَا تَأْثِيمٌۭ

24. ۞ وَيَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ غِلْمَانٌۭ لَّهُمْ كَأَنَّهُمْ لُؤْلُؤٌۭ مَّكْنُونٌۭ

25. وَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍۢ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ

26. قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا كُنَّا قَبْلُ فِىٓ أَهْلِنَا مُشْفِقِينَ

27. فَمَنَّ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْنَا وَوَقَىٰنَا عَذَابَ ٱلسَّمُومِ

28. إِنَّا كُنَّا مِن قَبْلُ نَدْعُوهُ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْبَرُّ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

29. فَذَكِّرْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِنِعْمَتِ رَبِّكَ بِكَاهِنٍۢ وَلَا مَجْنُونٍ

30. أَمْ يَقُولُونَ شَاعِرٌۭ نَّتَرَبَّصُ بِهِۦ رَيْبَ ٱلْمَنُونِ

31. قُلْ تَرَبَّصُوا۟ فَإِنِّى مَعَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْمُتَرَبِّصِينَ

32. أَمْ تَأْمُرُهُمْ أَحْلَٰمُهُم بِهَٰذَآ ۚ أَمْ هُمْ قَوْمٌۭ طَاغُونَ

33. أَمْ يَقُولُونَ تَقَوَّلَهُۥ ۚ بَل لَّا يُؤْمِنُونَ

34. فَلْيَأْتُوا۟ بِحَدِيثٍۢ مِّثْلِهِۦٓ إِن كَانُوا۟ صَٰدِقِينَ

35. أَمْ خُلِقُوا۟ مِنْ غَيْرِ شَىْءٍ أَمْ هُمُ ٱلْخَٰلِقُونَ

36. أَمْ خَلَقُوا۟ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ ۚ بَل لَّا يُوقِنُونَ

37. أَمْ عِندَهُمْ خَزَآئِنُ رَبِّكَ أَمْ هُمُ ٱلْمُصَۣيْطِرُونَ

38. أَمْ لَهُمْ سُلَّمٌۭ يَسْتَمِعُونَ فِيهِ ۖ فَلْيَأْتِ مُسْتَمِعُهُم بِسُلْطَٰنٍۢ مُّبِينٍ

39. أَمْ لَهُ ٱلْبَنَٰتُ وَلَكُمُ ٱلْبَنُونَ

40. أَمْ تَسْـَٔلُهُمْ أَجْرًۭا فَهُم مِّن مَّغْرَمٍۢ مُّثْقَلُونَ

41. أَمْ عِندَهُمُ ٱلْغَيْبُ فَهُمْ يَكْتُبُونَ

42. أَمْ يُرِيدُونَ كَيْدًۭا ۖ فَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ هُمُ ٱلْمَكِيدُونَ

43. أَمْ لَهُمْ إِلَٰهٌ غَيْرُ ٱللَّهِ ۚ سُبْحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ

44. وَإِن يَرَوْا۟ كِسْفًۭا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ سَاقِطًۭا يَقُولُوا۟ سَحَابٌۭ مَّرْكُومٌۭ

45. فَذَرْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ يُلَٰقُوا۟ يَوْمَهُمُ ٱلَّذِى فِيهِ يُصْعَقُونَ

46. يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُمْ كَيْدُهُمْ شَيْـًۭٔا وَلَا هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ

47. وَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ عَذَابًۭا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

48. وَٱصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا ۖ وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ

49. وَمِنَ ٱلَّيْلِ فَسَبِّحْهُ وَإِدْبَٰرَ ٱلنُّجُومِ

Context of Revelation

Surah At-Tur (The Mount) is a Meccan surah composed of 49 verses. Its name comes from the opening verse, which swears “by the Mount” (At-Tur), referring to Mount Sinai where God spoke to Moses. The surah was revealed during the middle Meccan period, addressing a defiant community that denied resurrection and mocked the Prophet ﷺ. It reaffirms the truth of the Qur’an and warns of the consequences of rejecting divine revelation.

Main Teachings and Key Insights

Surah At-Tur emphasizes the certainty of the Day of Judgment, the severity of divine punishment for the unjust, and the eternal joy of the believers. It opens with solemn oaths underscoring the weight of God’s promise and message. Key teachings include:

  • The divine oaths affirming the reality of Judgment. (vv. 1–8)
  • The description of punishment awaiting those who deny and ridicule the truth. (vv. 9–16)
  • The depiction of Paradise: families reunited, pure drinks, peace, and eternal delight. (vv. 17–28)
  • The reminder of the Prophet’s mission ﷺ to warn and convey the message with perseverance. (vv. 29–43)
  • The power of praise as a source of spiritual strength and protection. (vv. 44–49)

The surah alternates between warning and reassurance, illustrating God’s perfect justice—rewarding faith and humility while condemning arrogance and disbelief.

Structure and Main Themes

  • Introduction (vv. 1–8): successive oaths by mighty symbols affirming the reality of the Last Day.
  • The deniers of Judgment (vv. 9–23): depiction of punishment for the arrogant and reward for the faithful.
  • Dialogue of the blessed (vv. 24–28): gratitude of the believers for divine mercy and deliverance.
  • Defense of the Prophet ﷺ (vv. 29–43): refutation of accusations and mockery from the Quraysh.
  • Conclusion (vv. 44–49): call to patience, perseverance, and the glorification of God.

The tone of the surah is majestic and solemn: it evokes divine grandeur, the certainty of accountability, and the comfort granted to the Prophet ﷺ through revelation. Its rhythm and imagery deeply stir the listener’s heart.

Key Verse

The pivotal verse is verse 48:

وَاصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا ۖ وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ

So be patient with your Lord’s command, for you are under Our watchful care. And glorify your Lord with praise when you rise.

Why this verse is key:

  • It expresses God’s direct protection and affection toward the Prophet ﷺ — “you are under Our eyes.”
  • It teaches spiritual patience amid hardship and mockery.
  • It captures the surah’s central message of reassurance: faith, endurance, and praise safeguard the believer’s heart.

In summary, Surah At-Tur affirms the reality of the Final Judgment, the promise of Paradise, and the divine protection over the Prophet ﷺ. It stands as both a warning to the heedless and a source of solace for the faithful.
