Beautiful Recitation | Surah Al Baqarah | سورة البقره | Ruku 1| Verse 1 to 7 |Walid Marei Al Shehri

Surah Al Baqarah

It is the longest Surah of the Qur’an and was revealed after the migration of the Prophet ﷺ to Madinah. This surah has been encouraged to be recited most frequently, as the Prophet ﷺ declared that the satan runs away from the home Surah Al Baqarah is regularly recited. It is named after the incidence of the cow, which the Children of Israel were asked to slaughter by Allaah (SWT).

The surah begins with describing three sets of people – believers, disbelievers, and hypocrites, devoting most space to the last group. Allaah (SWT) also challenges the disbelievers to reproduce (at least) one surah similar to what’s revealed, most likely because the themes of this Surah itself were very extensive and encompassing of many aspects in relation to the Muslims.
