The Best of Creation – by Shaykh Mufti Saiful Islam

Sūrah Duhā was revealed to reassure our beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam that Allāh subhanahu wa ta’ala had not forsaken him, as it had been forty days according to some narrations since any revelation was sent down. This had caused our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam to fall into a depressed state of mind as he felt that Allāh subhanahu wa ta’ala had forgotten him. Sūrah Inshirāh gives the message of aspiration and upliftment in a time of struggle. Allāh subhanahu wa ta’ala mentions about the bounties and blessings bestowed upon the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam which were not so apparent and manifest.

In Sūrah Tīn, Allāh subhanahu wa ta’ala says that man is created in the best of form and he can grow in status by obeying Allāh subhanahu wa ta’ala and His Messenger sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
