Position in a revelation ordering

113 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.

Derived link a word counts toward a root only where every analysis Camel Morph kept for it names that one root and no analysis records none; words with no analysis, no root or conflicting roots are not counted anywhere. Roots on at least 2 words.

Not supplied

Words the analyser did not read

1130 of this surah's 2498 words have no analysis, and a further 569 have no single root, so the root counts are minimums. Camel Morph MSA is a Modern Standard Arabic analyser meeting Qur'anic Arabic.

Signed introduction to this surah

One hundred and twenty-nine verses opening with a declaration of immunity toward idolaters with whom a treaty had been made, and four months given to travel freely. It closes on an instruction to say that God suffices. It is the only surah this edition carries without a bismillah, and it takes its name from the repentance it returns to.
