Surah Al-Hashr

Surah Al-Hashr (الحشر) is the fifty-ninth chapter of the Holy Quran. Its name means “The Gathering.” It is a Madani Surah consisting of 24 ayahs and is contained in the twenty-eighth Juz of the Quran.

Surah Al-Hashr discusses the exile of Banu Nadir, the distribution of communal wealth, and lessons about loyalty, planning, and dependence upon Allah.

The Surah explains how a group that trusted in its fortifications was overcome in a way they did not expect, reminding people that material defenses alone do not guarantee security.

It provides guidance for the distribution of fay' so that wealth does not circulate only among the rich.

The Surah praises the Muhajirun and Ansar and highlights the generosity of those who prefer others even when they themselves are in need.

It also describes hypocrisy through the example of people who promise support but abandon others when consequences arrive.

The closing verses contain several beautiful names and attributes of Allah, encouraging reflection, reverence, and remembrance.
