Surah An-Nahl
Surah An-Nahl, or The Honey Bee, is the 16th chapter of the Quran. It is significant for its refutation of shirk and proof of Tawhid, which are based on signs in the universe and in human creation. The surah also responds to doubters' concerns, refutes their arguments, and removes their doubts. It warns of the consequences of continuing to act in misleading ways, and outlines the moral adjustments that must be made in everyday life.
The surah also:
- Warns against polytheism, saying that pagan gods cannot create anything
- Praises God for giving the Earth with all its wealth to mankind
- Deals with issues such as Divine blessings, reasons for monotheism and resurrection, ordinances concerning the Holy war, threats against the pagans, and dissuasions of injustice, indecency, breaking of one's promises, innovations, and satanical temptations
The name of Surah An-Nahl comes from verse 68, and it was revealed during the last Makkan stage of Prophethood
