Full Al-Isra Recitation by Mischari Raschid al-Afasi.

About the Sura:

Surah Al-Isra is the 17th surah (chapter) of The Glorious Quran. Name of the surah means The Night Journey. It has 111 ayaat (verses) and was revealed in the holy city of Makkah i.e., before Prophet ﷺ migrated to the city of Medina. This surah can be found in juz / paara 15.

Introduction:

Since Abraham ( ﷺ ) is praised in the last verses of the previous sûrah as a role model for the world, this Meccan sûrah speaks of how the Prophet ( ﷺ ) is honoured in this world through the Night Journey from Mecca to Jerusalem then to the heavens and back to Mecca-all in one night (verses 1 and 60). He ( ﷺ ) will also be honoured on the Day of Judgment through the station of praise where he will make intercession (verse 79). The children of Israel are referred to passingly at the end of the previous sûrah, but more insights are given about them both at the beginning and the end of this sûrah. The key to success in this life and salvation in the next is encapsulated in a set of divine commandments (verses 22-39), along with a warning against Satan and his whispers (verses 61-65). The sûrah is critical of the pagan arguments against resurrection and their ridiculous demands (verses 89-93). Criticism of attributing partners and children to Allāh is carried over to the next sûrah.
