088 - Surah Al-Ghashiyah “The Overwhelming” the 88th chapter of the Qur’an | Recitation
It was narrated that Ubaidullah bin Abdullah said: “Dahhak bin Qais wrote to Nu’man bin Bashir, saying: ‘Tell us what the Messenger of Allah (saws) used to recite on Friday along with Surah Al-Jumu’ah.’ He said: ‘He used to recite: “Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming (i.e., the Day of Resurrection)?’” Sahih (Darussalam) Sunan Ibn Majah 1119
The main theme or subject of this Surah can be divided into 3 topics. The first is the resurrection and contrast between good and evil. Allah describes in detail what it would like to be in Jahanam and compares this to those who would be in heaven. The second theme is about Allah’s oneness with reference to his beautiful creations of the sky, earth, and mountains. The last subject is prophecy and the duties of the prophets, Allah (سُبْحَٰنَهُۥ وَتَعَٰلَىٰ) mentions that he is not a controller but a reminder for non-believers.
