“Recite in the name of your Lord who created”
Share This Story
Have you ever wondered why is this the first ayah revealed in the Quran on Prophet Mohammed “Peace be upon him”?
The first ayah, (“Recite in the name of your Lord who created”), was revealed as the initial message to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) for several profound reasons.
Emphasis on Knowledge and Education: The command to “read” highlights the significance of knowledge, literacy, and learning in Islam.
Divine Revelation as the Source of Knowledge: By beginning with “in the name of your Lord,” the ayah underscores that all true knowledge originates from God. It sets the tone for the Quran’s role as a divine guide for humanity.
Preparation for Prophethood: This ayah marked the beginning of the Prophet’s mission. The call to read signified the start of his journey as a messenger, tasked with conveying God’s message to a largely illiterate society.
