Explanation of Soorah (Chapter) Al-Falaq

The Soorah
In the Name of Allaah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful:
Allaah Says (what means): "Say: 'I seek refuge in the Lord of
daybreak. From the evil of that which He created. And from the evil of
darkness when it settles. And from the evil of the blowers in knots.
And from the evil of an envier when he envies.'" [Quran 113:1-5]
Explanation
1. "Say: 'I seek refuge in the Lord of daybreak."
Jaabir said that Falaq means morning. Ibn 'Abbaas said that Falaq
means creation. Ka'b Al-Ahbar said that Falaq is a place in Hell -
when its gate is opened, all the inmates of Hell cryout because of the
intensity of itsheat. Imaams Ibn Jareer and Al-Bukhaari said that it
means morning, and this view seems reasonable. Allaah directs
believers to seek refuge in the Lord of the Falaq.
2. "From the evil of that which Hecreated."
Meaning, to seek refuge from the evil that He (i.e., Allaah Almighty)
created. His creation includes Hell, Iblees (Satan) and his offspring,
and other evil things.
3. "And from the evil of Ghaasiq (darkness) when it settles ."
One should seek refuge from the evil of nightfall. According to Ibn
Zayd, the Arabs termed the setting of the Pleiades star as 'Ghaasiq'
and believed that after its setting and at its rising, disease
increases and spreads. Some commentators say that theword Ghaasiq
means moon. They base their argument on a Hadeeth (narration) where
the Prophet once held the hand of 'Aa'ishah and pointed to the moon,
saying: "Seek refuge from the evil of this Ghaasiq." [Ahmad] However,
the rising of the moon and the appearance of the stars are things that
happen at night.
4. "And from the evil of the blowers in knots."
5. "And from the evil of an envier when he envies."
"…The blowers in knots… " refers to sorcerers. Mujaahid said:"(It is)
when they make their incantations and blow on the knots." Ibn Jareer
quoted Ibn Taawwoos as saying, on the authority of his father: "There
is nothing closer to Shirk (polytheism) than those incantations used
as a protectionfrom snakes and insanity, etc." Such incantations are
made to blow on a snake bite or magic-stricken man. A Hadeeth says
thatJibreel once came to the Prophet and asked: "O Muhammad! Are you
sick?" When the Prophet replied in the affirmative, he said: "Invoke
the Name of Allaah against every disease that pains you, against the
evil of every envier and against any evil eye. May Allaah heal you."
The disease referred to in this Hadeeth was probably a magic spell.
Allaah then healed His Messenger and repelled that magic.
Imaam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal reported that a Jew bewitched the Prophet who
remained under its spell for several days. Then Jibreel, peace be upon
him, came to him and informed him that such and such a Jew had
bewitched him and had hidden a knotted rope down such and such a well
and asked him to send somebody to get it. When the Prophet received
it, he untied the knots, and the spell was broken. He never mentioned
it to that Jew nor showed him any anger.
'Aa'ishah narrated: "Once when the Prophet was under a magic spell, he
thought that he had come to his wives while he had not done so. Once,
he said to me: "I asked my Lord and He showed me. Two persons came and
one sat near my head and the other near my legs. The man sitting near
my head asked the other: 'What has happened to this man.' He replied:
'He is undera spell.' (The first) asked: 'Who bewitched him?' (The
second) answered: 'Labeed Ibn Al-A'sam from the Banu Zurayq tribe.
They are allies of the Jews.' The (first) man asked: 'What was the
item used for charming?' The other answered: 'The comb and the hair.'
(The first) asked: 'Where arethose things?' The other answered: 'In
the well of Dharwan, under a rock."' The Prophet sent 'Ali to the well
and had the things dug out. I ('Aa'ishah) suggested that the magician
should be punished. The Prophet replied: "All praise is due to Allaah
who healed me; I do not like to incite people for myself." [Al-
Bukhaari]

The Makkan and Madeenan Quran

As part of studying the revelationof the Quran, the Muslim scholars
have categorised the Soorahs (chapters) of the Quran and their verses
according to the time or era of their revelation. This is the subject
that came to be known as the Makkan and Madeenan division, or
revelation, of the Quran. This division is logical since the Prophet,
Muhammad received revelation over twenty-three (23) years: thirteen
(13) of them he spent in Makkah and ten (10) in Madeenah.
The correct and well-established definition of Makkan and Madeenan
Quran is the one in which the Chapters and verses that were revealed
prior to the Hijrah or immigration of Prophet Muhammad from the city
of Makkah to the city of Madeenah are known as 'Makkan'. All other
Chapters and verses that were revealed after this time are termed
'Madeenan'.
The location of their revelation is not necessarily relevant to this
classification, such that there may be certain revelations that were
revealed in Makkah, but are classified as Madeenan because ofthe
period of their revelation. A good example of this is the Chapter of
An-Nasr (Divine Support), number 110, which wasrevealed in Minaa
(outskirts of Makkah) yet it is classified as a Madeenan Chapter
because it wasrevealed while the Prophet was living in Madeenah just
a few months before he passedaway.
The Makkan part of the Noble Quran deals mainly with beliefs like the
Creation as in the verse (which means): "And a great number of towns
(their population) We destroyed (for their crimes). Our torment came
upon them (suddenly) by night orwhile they were taking their midday
nap." [Quran 7:4], the Oneness and Uniqueness of Allaah, the Most
Exalted, as in theverses (which mean): "Say (O Muhammad): 'He is
Allaah, (the) One. Allaah the Self-Sufficient Master, Whom all
creatures need . He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none
co-equal or comparable unto Him. " [Quran 112], prophethood, as in the
verse (which means): "It is He (Allaah) who has sent among the
unlettered a Messenger (Muhammad) from themselves, reciting to them
His verses and purifying them and teaching them the Book [Quran] and
wisdom [i.e. the Sunnah or Prophet's sayings] — although they were
before in clear error —." [Quran 62:2], the revelation, as in the
verse (which means): "Verily, We have sent it (this Quran) down in the
night of Al-Qadr (Decree)." [Quran 97:1], angels, as stated in the
verse (which means): " Whoever is an enemy to Allaah, His Angels, His
Messengers, Jibreel (Gabriel) and Meekaa'eel (Michael), then verily,
Allaah is an enemy to the disbelievers." [Quran 2: 98], and The Day of
Judgement as in verses (which mean): "Then (on the Day of Judgement)
as for him whose balance (of good deeds) will be heavy. He will live a
pleasant life (in Paradise ). But as for him whose balance (of good
deeds) will be light . He will have his home in a pit (Hell). And what
will make you know what it is? (It is) a fiercely blazing Fire! "
[Quran 101: 6-11]
General disobedience of man, andhis punishment and reward are frequent
themes in the Makkan verses.
The creation and development of man in the mother's womb is taken to
be a wondrous thing.
Madeenan parts, on the other hand, are filled with laws, both
universal as well as worldly (marriage, divorce, heritage,
blood-money, other transactions,etc). Special emphasis is laid on
justice and fairness. Social interaction and ethical rules have been
elaborated time and time again. Politics, worship and prayers are also
frequently discussed.
Next, is a list of the Makkan and Madeenan Chapters is provided for
easy reference. The list is based on the classification used by the
Mus-haf (Quran text book) we read today. For the sake of brevity, only
the Chapter numbersare provided:
Makkan Chapters:
6/7/10/11/12/14/15/16/17/18/19/20/21/23/25/26/27/28/29/30/31/32/
34/35/35/36/37/38/39/40/41/42/43/44/45/46/50/51/52/53/54/56/67/
68/69/70/71/72/73/74/75/77/78/79/80/81/82/83/84/85/86/87/88/89/
90/91/92/93/94/95/96/100/101/102/103/104/105/106/107/108/109/
111/112/113/114.
Madeenan Chapters:
2/3/4/5/8/9/13/22/24/33/47/48/49/55/57/58/59/60/61/62/63/64/65/
66/76/98/99/110.
Accordingly, the Makkan Chaptersare 85 in number, and the Madeenan are
28, the total of which is 113, where it should be 114. The reason for
missing a Chapter is the fact that we did not include the first
Chapter in the Mus-haf, which is Al-Faatihah,or the Opening Chapter.
This Chapter has been reported as having been revealed twice, one time
in Makkah and another in Madeenah. Therefore, it was not included in
either of them.
It should be pointed out that the only way for us to know whether a
Chapter is Makkan or Madeenan is through narration, and not by
Ijtihaad (the exertion of effort on the part of a qualified Islamic
scholar to deduce an Islamic law for an issue about which there is no
clear, specific text). Thus, the only way to distinguish them is
through authentic narrations from the Companions narrated from the
Prophet .
