Surah
About this surah
Classed as a Meccan sura, it begins with oaths by horses in motion: chargers panting as they run, striking sparks with their hooves, raiding at dawn, raising clouds of dust and plunging into the middle of a host. The oaths lead to three statements about human beings: man is ungrateful to his Lord, he is himself a witness to that, and he is intense in his love of wealth. The last three verses ask whether man does not know what will happen when the contents of the graves are scattered out and what is hidden in the breasts is brought to light — that on that Day his Lord will be fully aware of everyone. The sura moves from the image of galloping horses, to the inner life of people, to the Day when everything is laid open.
