Surah An-Naba, which means “The Tidings” or “The Announcement,” is the 78th chapter of the Quran. It is a brief yet impactful surah consisting of 40 verses that primarily focus on the resurrection and the Day of Judgment.
The surah begins by asking a rhetorical question about the significant event that people are disputing. It then goes on to describe the scenes of the Day of Judgment, highlighting the accountability of individuals for their deeds and the presentation of their records. The surah underscores the power and authority of God in orchestrating the ultimate reckoning.
Surah An-Naba aims to awaken human consciousness, urging reflection on the purpose of life and the consequences of one’s actions. It serves as a reminder of the reality of the Hereafter and encourages believers to live righteous lives in anticipation of accountability in the afterlife.
