Surah Al-Furqan, the 25th chapter of the Qur'an, is significant because it is also known as Tabarak and means "separator of the truth from falsehood". The name refers to the Qur'an as the decisive factor between good and evil, and the surah addresses questions and doubts raised by disbelievers of Mecca. It discusses topics such as monotheism, resurrection, prophethood, and fighting idolatry. The final verses of the surah talk about the qualities of true believers.
The surah was revealed in Makkah during the third phase of Prophethood and has 77 verses divided into 6 Rukus/Sections. Some say that one of the benefits of reciting Surah Al-Furqan is that one will be resurrected on the Day of Judgment while having faith in the Day of Judgment and the resurrection of the dead from their graves.
Surah Ash-Shu'ara, or "The Poets", is chapter 26 of the Quran. It was revealed during the middle Makkan period and is named after the word "Ash-Shu`araa'" in verse 224. The chapter's background is that the non-believers of Makkah rejected the message of Islam and called the Prophet Muhammad a poet or sorcerer. The chapter discusses the mercy of God, various prophets and their tribes, and how the disbelievers were destroyed after threatening the prophets with death. It also includes cautionary tales of destroyed deniers, such as Pharaoh and the peoples of Noah, Shu'aib, Lot, and Ṣâliḥ.
Some say that reciting Surah Ash-Shu'ara at dawn is comparable to reciting all the heavenly books that have been revealed. Others say that frequent recitation of this Surah protects from thieves and from death by drowning or being burnt. Drinking water in which this Surah was dissolved is also said to protect one from all types of ailments.
Surah An-Nahl, or "The Bee", is the 16th chapter of the Quran and is considered one of its greatest surahs. It has 128 verses and is named after honey bees, which are mentioned in verse 68. The chapter is believed to have been revealed in Mecca and compares the industry and adaptability of honey bees to that of humans.
Surah An-Nahl is a source of guidance, reflection, and appreciation for the wonders of creation. It encourages believers to cultivate gratitude, patience, and awareness of the divine wisdom in creation. The chapter's main focus is highlighting divine blessings, such as rain, sunshine, plants, fruits, foods, and animals. This is intended to invite people to be thankful, contemplative, and submissive to divine commandments.
According to some quotations from the Prophet, reciting Surah An-Nahl will make one eligible to go to Paradise. The Prophet also said that Allah will not hold the reciter accountable for the blessings they have received in this world.
