About Surah Al-'Adiyat

Surah Al-'Adiyat (العاديات) is the one hundredth chapter of the Holy Quran. Its name means “The Chargers.” It is a Makki Surah consisting of 11 ayahs and is contained in the thirtieth Juz of the Quran.

Surah Al-'Adiyat opens with a powerful image of charging horses, their breath, sparks, dust, and sudden movement.

The energetic scene is followed by a sharp contrast with human ingratitude toward Allah.

The Surah points out that people can become intensely attached to wealth and material possessions.

It asks them to consider the time when graves will be overturned and what is hidden within hearts will be exposed.

The message connects outward actions with inner motivations, showing that both are known to Allah.
