Ibrāhīm (Arabic: إبراهيم, "Abraham") is the 14th chapter (surah) of the Qur'an with 52 verses (ayat).
The surah emphasizes that only God knows what goes on inside a man's heart, implying we must accept each other's words in good faith.(14:38)[1]
Regarding the timing and contextual background of the supposed revelation (asbāb al-nuzūl), it is an earlier "Meccan surah", which means it is believed to have been revealed in Mecca, instead of later in Medina.
