95: (Al-Tin)- The Fig

Bismillah-ir-Rahman-ir-Rahim.

In the Name of Allâh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. All the praises and thanks be to Allâh, the Lord of the 'Alamîn . The Only Owner of the Day of Recompense. You (Alone) we worship, and You (Alone) we ask for help. Guide us to the Straight Way. The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace , not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger, nor of those who went astray .

95: (Al-Tin)- The Fig 

(The Fig)Number of Verses: 8

Sūra al-Tīn (سورة التین, the fig) or Wa l-tīn wa l-zaytūn (والتین والزیتون) is ninety fifth sura of the glorious quran and among makki suras. It is among short suras located in thirty of the Qur'an.

The general theme of sura al-Tin is the hereafter and rewards there. God began this sura with four oaths and calls the creation of human being the best and most perfect. In commentaries of the Qur'an based on hadiths, some of the verses of this sura are attributed to some of the Infallible ones (a); for example, it is said that by "Wa l-tin wa l-zaytun", Imam al-Hasan (a) and Imam al-Husayn (a) are meant.

About the merits of recitation of this sura, it is narrated that well-being and certainty in faith are among its worldly fruits and the reward equal with the reward for fasting is among its fruits in the hereafter.

The theme in this Surah, indeed, pivots on the subject of the creation of Man; the finest mould, and the processes of his development and his lowliness. The subject begins with some comprehensive oaths at the beginning of the Surah, and then, after enumerating some of the sources of Man's victory and salvation, it concludes with the emphasis on Resurrection and the absolute Sovereignty of Allah.

The holy Prophet (S) is narrated to have said:

"Allah will endow, in this world, the two qualities of safety and certainty to the person who recites it (Surah Tin). and when he dies, He will give him rewards equal to the reward of fasting one day (multiplied) by the number of all those who have recited this Surah."

This Surah has been revealed in Mecca.

The evidence is the verse, itself:

"And this city of security (Mecca)",

containing the demonstrative adjective

'this'

which refers to something near.

1 By the fig, by the olive, 2 by Mount Sinai, 3 by this safe town, 4 We create man in the finest state 5 then reduce him to the lowest of the low, 6 except those who believe and do good deeds––7 they will have an unfailing reward. After this, what makes you [man] deny the Judgement? 8 Is God not the most decisive of judges? [Quran, 95:1-8]
