sura rahman

Sūra al-Raḥmān (Arabic:سورة الرحمن) known as the bride of the Qur'an is the fifty fifth sura of the Qur'an which is located in the twenty seventh juz'. The name of this sura is one of the names of God, which is the first word of this sura. There are disagreements about whether this sura is Makki or Madani. The sixty forth verse of this sura is the shortest verse in the Qur'an, "مُدهامَّتان" (Densely shaded with dark green trees). A large number of God's blessings in this world and in the hereafter are mentioned in this sura of the Qur'an. Also the resurrection and its features as well as evaluation of deeds. In this sura, after mentioning each blessing God asks His servants the question "فبای آلاء ربکما تکذبان" (Then, O Jinns and men, which of your Lord's bounties will you both deny?) which is repeated thirty one times in this sura. Based on a narration from Imam al-Sadiq (a), it is recommended to recite the phrase "لا بشیء من آلائک رب اکذب" (Oh God, I will not deny any of your bounties.) after reciting this verse of the Qur'an. According to narrations if someone recites Sura al-Rahman, God will grant him the chance of being grateful to the blessings, he is given, and if he pass away in that night or day, he will be considered as a martyr. This Surah Rahman is recited by Abdul Basit, Mohamed Siddiq El-Minshawi, Abu Bakr al-Shatri and Saad al-Ghamdi, in their beautiful voices.
