Revelation order as encoded by the Tanzil metadata · Tanzil publishes an "order" value for each surah and documents the field only as "revelation order". It does not name which ordering it encodes, cite a scholar, or reference an edition. We have therefore not established whose ordering this is, and we do not name one. The major orderings disagree about dozens of surahs, so naming the likeliest candidate would be a guess presented as a citation.

Signed introduction to this surah
Twenty-nine verses opening on a victory given, the word this surah is named for. What follows turns on an oath of allegiance sworn beneath a tree, on those who stayed behind and the excuses they bring, and on a vision of entering the sacred place said to have been fulfilled. It closes by naming Muhammad and describing those who are with him.
