006-Surah-Anaam.pdf

The Cattle or Surat al-An'am is the sixth chapter of the Qur'an, with 165 verses. It is a Makkan sura and its main topics are monotheism, resurrection, heaven and hell. The surah reports the story of the prophet Abraham,[Quran 6:74–80] who, by using his own reason, stops worshiping celestial bodies and turns towards Allah so that he could receive revelation.It includes a version of the Mosaic Ten Commandments. Verse (6:159) is famously known for forbidding sects and denominations. As for those who divide their religion and break up into sects, thou hast no part in them in the least: their affair is with Allah: He will in the end tell them the truth of all that they did. Inna allatheena farraqoo deenahum wakanoo shi'a an lasta minhum fee shay, in innama amruhum ila Allah thumma yunabbi-ohum bima kanoo yaf 'aloon.
