Ibrahim (surah)

Ibrahim (surah)

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.

Name

This chapter's name is Surah Ibrahim (Arabic) or Chapter of Abraham (English). Surahs of the Quran are not always named after their thematic content, but in this case a large section of the surah (ayat 35-41) focus on a prayer of Abraham's, which reveals the quality of Abraham's character.
