A brief surah holding the whole formula for salvation. 104 Al-Humazahالهمزة The Traducer · Makki · 9 ayat A warning against every slanderer and backbiter who hoards wealth, thinking it will make him immortal. Instead he will be flung into the Crushing Fire of Allah that rises over the hearts, closed in upon them in outstretched columns. 105 Al-Filالفيل The Elephant · Makki · 5 ayat Recalling how Allah defeated Abrahah's army of the elephant that came to destroy the Ka'bah, sending flocks of birds to pelt them with stones of hard clay — a sign of His protection of His Sacred House. 106 Qurayshقريش Quraysh · Makki · 4 ayat For the security and provision Quraysh enjoyed in their winter and summer caravans — safeguarded by the Ka'bah — they are called to worship the Lord of this House, who fed them against hunger and secured them against fear. 107 Al-Ma'unالماعون The Small Kindnesses · Makki · 7 ayat Exposing the one who denies the Day of Judgment: he repels the orphan and neglects feeding the poor.

His wealth and standing will not save him from a blazing Fire, and his wife, who carried thorns against him, will bear a rope of palm fiber around her neck. 112 Al-Ikhlasالإخلاص The Sincerity · Makki · 4 ayat The essence of pure tawheed: Allah is One, the Self-Sufficient Eternal Refuge, who neither begets nor is begotten, and there is nothing at all comparable to Him.
