Theme - The theme of this Surah is to console and encourage the Holy Messenger (SAW).
- In it, at the outset, Allah says: "We have favoured you, O Prophet, with 3 great blessings; therefore you have no cause to be disheartened."
(1) The blessing of Sharh Sadr (opening up of the breast)
(2) Removing from you the heavy burden that was weighing down your back before the call
(3) Exalting your renown the like of which has never been granted to any man before
- After this, the Lord and Sustainer of the universe has reassured His Servant and Messenger (upon whom be peace) that the period of hardships which he is passing through, is not very long, but following close behind it there is also a period of ease.
In conclusion, the Holy Prophet has been instructed, so as to say, You can develop the power to bear and resist the hardships of the initial stage only by one means, and it is this: 'When you are free from your occupations, you should devote yourself to the labour and toil of worship, and turn all your attention exclusively to your Lord'.
