Position in a revelation ordering
77 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.

Signed introduction to this surah
Thirty verses turning to made things as evidence: death and life as a test, seven heavens without flaw, birds held up in the air. It opens by blessing the one in whose hand the kingdom lies — the word this surah is named for — and its closing verses are a run of instructions to say something.
