49. Surah Al-Hujurat (الحجرات)

Revelation: Madani (revealed at Madinah) · Ayahs: 18

Introduction — from Tafheem-ul-Quran

A Madinan surah of manners and community ethics: do not raise your voices above the Prophet's ﷺ voice; verify news brought by the ungodly; make peace between believing brothers; no mocking, taunting, evil nicknames, suspicion, spying or backbiting — 'the believers are but brothers,' and the noblest is the most God-conscious.

Condensed from Sayyid Abul A'la Maududi's introduction to this surah in Tafheem-ul-Quran.
