Position in a revelation ordering
99 of 114
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.

Not supplied
Words the analyser did not read
116 of this surah's 287 words have no analysis, and a further 61 have no single root, so the root counts are minimums. Camel Morph MSA is a Modern Standard Arabic analyser meeting Qur'anic Arabic.

Provisional stand-in: studies tagged a common misconception that cite this surah
Derived link every current study that carries the common-misconception tag and cites a verse of this surah. That tag is a discovery aid, not a mark that the text does not establish the claim — that mark does not exist yet — so this list is provisional and not a complete account of the claims the text does not establish. The question is quoted; the answer is on the study.

Signed introduction to this surah
Twelve verses on divorce done in a way that can still be undone: count the waiting period, do not turn women out of their houses, do not let them leave, because something may happen afterwards that nobody expected. Provision, housing and nursing are set out plainly, and so is the instruction to keep two just witnesses.
