ADHIKR

This Surah got the name Annajm-The Star-from the first verse which says ‘By the Star when it sets’. It was revealed during the last period in the fifth year of Messenger’s Maccan life after Muhammed got prophet hood. This is the first Surah revealed containing the ‘prostration of recitation’. For not to witness darkness life seen in the society, Muhammed was spending the day time in the cave Hira being meditation-Retreat. At that time, in a morning Angel Jibreel was presenting near Muhammed in his full shape, and was giving the verses 96: 1 to 96: 5 as divine Message to him. Then Jibreel told Muhammed to read, but he said: I am not the one reading. Then Jibreel embraced Muhammed and then he became breathless, and his soul contacted with the Lord in the Paradise. Then he remembered the verses taught from the Paradise and could read the verses 9: 1-6 being the first revelation from the Lord. The second time Jibreel presented near Muhammed in his real shape with 600 wings was from ‘Sidrathul Munthaha-Lote tree beyond the boundary’-in Messenger’s ascending journey to the Paradise which is above the seven heavens.
This Surah teaches that no intercession of Angels or saint people will be benefited without the Permission of Allah who is the Lord of the Universe; and those who are ascribing intercessors and mediators to Lord Allah, and who are considering the Angels as Allah’s daughters are not following except conjectures. They are rejecting the Hereafter and are acquiring knowledge benefitting only for this worldly life. This Surah also teaches that Lord who has created mankind in the bellies of their mothers knows very clearly that who among you are the heedful, and so you should not purify you yourselves. That means you need not familiarize to him about yourself. It also teaches that man has nothing except what he is doing intentionally; and that on the Day everyone will be rewarded for what he intentionally did, no bearer of burden will bear any others burden. And that is also the Message of the Books revealed to earlier Messengers such as Moses and Ibrahim. This surah containing 62 verses ends teaching that Adhikr is the warning of Lord Allah to all His creatures, and the Day of happening Its warnings is coming near and near, and so by considering Adhikr-Speech of Lord- as serious, mankind is commanded to serve Allah and to prostrate before Him.
