About Surah Al-Fajr
Al-Fajr, “The Dawn”, opens with oaths by the dawn and the ten nights, which many scholars understand as the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah. It recalls the destruction of 'Ad, Thamud and Pharaoh, and corrects man's view that wealth means honour and poverty means humiliation.
It ends with a gentle call to the believing soul: “O reassured soul, return to your Lord, well pleased and pleasing to Him. Enter among My servants, and enter My Paradise.”
