About this surah
Classed as a Medinan sura, it has three verses. It begins with a condition: 'When the help of God comes, and the victory.' The second verse describes what the listener will then see — people entering the religion of God in crowds. The third verse tells him how to respond to this moment: by glorifying God with the praise of his Lord and asking His forgiveness. It ends with a description of God as 'ever accepting of repentance'. In this order, success and the growth of the community are followed in the text not by celebration but by praise and a request for forgiveness. The sura moves from divine help, to people turning to God in great numbers, to humble worship.
