Al-Hijr ٱلْحِجْر

  • Summary

  • Al-Ḥijr (Arabic: الحِجْرْ, lit. 'The Stoneland')[1] is the 15th sūrah (chapter of the Quran). It has 99 āyāt (verses). Regarding the timing and contextual background of the revelation (asbāb al-nuzūl), it is an earlier Meccan surah, received by Muhammad shortly after chapter 12, Yusuf, during his last year in Mecca. Like other surahs of this period, it praises God. Parts of Q15:4-74 are preserved in the Ṣan‘ā’1 lower text.[2] This surah takes its name from 80th verse (āyah),[3] which refers to Mada'in Saleh, a pre-Islamic archaeological site, also called Hegra (from Arabic: الحِجَارَة, romanized: al-ḥijāra, lit. 'the Stones') or al-Ḥijr (Arabic: الحِجر, romanized: al-ḥijr, lit. 'the Stone').سورة الحِجْر سورة مكية ما عدا الآية 87 فمدنية، وهي من المئين وقيل من مثاني، آياتها 99، وترتيبها في المصحف 15، في الجزء الرابع عشر، نزلت بعد سورة يوسف، بدأت بحروف مقطعة ﴿الر تِلْكَ آيَاتُ الْكِتَابِ وَقُرْآنٍ مُبِينٍ ١﴾، والحجر هي مساكن ثمود قوم صالح المعروفة قديمًا بمدينة الحجر.
