  Period of Revelation: This Surah was revealed during the last stage of the Prophet’s residence at Makkah.Major Issues, Divine Laws and Guidance:

  • Al-Qur’an is revealed by Allah to warn people and establish a charge-sheet against the disbelievers.
  • Allah has created all things in pairs.
  • The day, night, sun and moon, all are being regulated by Allah.
  • Scenes from the Day of Judgement:
  • Allah’s greetings to the residents of Paradise.
  • Allah’s address to the criminals / sinners.
  • Hands and feet shall bear witness.
  • All human beings shall be raised to life again on the Day of Judgement for accountability of their deeds.

   The object of this discourse is to warn the unbelievers about the consequences of not believing in the Prophethood of Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) and of resisting and opposing it with tyranny, ridicule and mockery. Arguments are also given about Tawheed (the Oneness of God), Risalat (Prophethood) and the Hereafter from the signs of the universe and the use of common sense.Imam Ahmed, Abu Daud, Nasai, Ibn Majah and Tabarani have related on the authority of Sayyiduna Ma’qil bin Yasar that the Prophet said: “Surah Ya-Seen is the heart of the Qur’an.” This is similar to describing the Surah Al-Fatiha as the Umm-al-Qur’an (the essence or core of the Qur’an), because Al-Fatiha contains the sum and substance of the teaching of the whole Qur’an. Surah Ya-Seen has been called the throbbing heart of the Qur’an because it presents the message of the Qur’an in a most forceful manner which breaks the inertia and stirs the spirits of man to action. Imam Ahmed has also related that the Prophet said: “Recite Surah Ya-Seen to the dying ones among you.” The objective is to refresh the dying person’s memory about Islam and also bring before him a complete picture of the Hereafter so that he may know what stages he will have to pass after crossing the stage of this worldly life. In view of this, it would be desirable, that, along with the recitation of the Surah Ya-Seen, its translation is also read for the benefit of the person who does not know Arabic so that the purpose of the admonition is duly fulfilled.
