The 25th chapter of the Holy Quran is Surah Al-Furqan. The title of the surah means The Criterion. The name Al-furqan is taken from the first verse of the surah where the Holy Quran is portrayed as the book of criterion or Furkan. The 77 beautiful verses discuss many significant topics of Islam and clarify and answer the doubts and questions that were raised against the Holy Quran.
Surah Al-Furqan is a Meccan surah and it comprises eight hundred and ninety six (896) words, five hundred and seventy four (574) unique words without repetition, three thousand eight hundred and seventy eight (3878) letters, six (6) rukus and no sajdah.
In the very first verse of the Surah Al-Furqan Allah states that Allah had sent down the Quran as a book of criterion on Muhammad (Pbuh) so that he can become a warner to the whole of humanity. Verses 4-9 answer many accusations that were raised against the book of criteria. In the surah, Allah further states that on the day of judgment false deities will deny any claim of divinity and blame their worshipers for doing shirk. The further verses discuss prophets including Musa, Nuh, Ad and Lut alaihissalam. Verses 59-60 informs us of the phases of creation. The last verses warn us against believing like deaf and blinds.
