106- AL-QURAYSH
QURAYSH
Quraysh is a Makkan sūrah that takes its name from the mention of the Prophet’s tribe in the first line. According to several commentators, Ubayy ibn Kaʿb’s manuscript of the Quran had al-Fīl and Quraysh together as one sūrah (Bg, Z). Ibn Ḥajar al-ʿAsqalānī (d. 852/1448) regards Ubayy ibn Kaʿb’s version as evidence that this is the proper reading (Fatḥ al- Bāriʾ). According to al-Zamakhsharī and al-Rāzī, ʿUmar ibn al- Khaṭṭāb is said to have recited the two sūrahs as one whenleading prayer. Ibn Kathīr and others argue that, although the two are connected in meaning, they are to be considered separate sūrahs.
The first two verses of this sūrah remind the Quraysh of the blessing they have received in God’s having preserved them and provided them with means for prosperity. Vv. 3–4 provide the central theme, that one should worship God, since all prosperity and protection come from Him.
