Surah Al-Mulk | Protection from the Punishment of the Grave | A Light for the Believers | Sakeena

📖 Surah Al-Mulk (سورة الملك) — “The Sovereignty” — is one of the most profound chapters of the Qur’an. Revealed in Makkah, this Surah contains 30 powerful verses that remind us of Allah’s absolute control, the purpose of life, and the reality of death and resurrection.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:

“Surah Al-Mulk is the protector from the punishment of the grave.”
(Tirmidhi)

This Surah beautifully opens with the declaration of Allah’s majesty and power:

تَبَارَكَ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ الْمُلْكُ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ
“Blessed is He in whose hand is dominion, and He is over all things competent.” (67:1)

It is a reminder that everything we possess, every breath we take, every heartbeat — is all under the command of Allah, the King of all kings.

The Test of Life:
