Ash-Sharh
Ash-Sharh ( Arabic الشرح asch-Scharḥ 'The Widening ') is the 94th sura of the Koran , it contains 8 verses . The sura is one of the early parts of the Qur'an that wasrevealedin Mecca (610–615). Their title refers to the first verse.
Mohammed is asked to remember the blessings of God and to turn to him in prayer. Some Muslim traditions take the expansion of the chest literally in the first verse and tell how the archangel Gabriel took the heart of ten-year-old Mohammed out of the chest and, after washing it of all evil, brought it back into the chest. Verses 5 and 6 repeat the statement that the difficulty is followed by relief - a promise that is also repeated in Sura 65 : 7.
Due to the similarity of content, style and length, Theodor Nöldeke assumes in his chronology of the Koran that the preceding sura ad-Duha was revealed roughly at the same time as this sura. This is also the reason why the two suras are often read together.
