This Surah, like many other Meccan Suras, contains short, meaningful, awakening verses with abundant warnings.There are several oaths mentioned in the first part of the Surah that have no precedent and are primarily for warning the transgressors about the divine punishment.

Another part of this Surah points to some of the ancient rebellious nations, such as the ‘Ad and Thamood people; and also to Pharaoh. The transgressor, and the divine punishment that destroyed them, which is a lesson for all arrogant powers so that they may take careful account of their situation.In the next part of the Surah, which relates to the previous parts, Man’s trial is mentioned and his neglect, in doing good deeds, is very sharply criticized.In the last part of the Surah the discussion is about the Hereafter and the fate of the sinners and unbelievers, and presents a contrast in regard to the great rewards that the believers will receive; those whose souls are at rest.

The Virtue of Studying Surah Fajr

Regarding the virtue of studying this Surah, a tradition from the Prophet (S) says:“Allah forgives the mistakes of whoever recites, Surah Fajr, on the’Ten Nights’,(i.e., the first ten nights of Zul-Hajj), and it will become a light on Dooms Day for the one who recites it at other times ((of the year)”.

Also, a tradition from Imam Sadiq (as) says:“Recite Surah Fajr, which is Husain-ibn-Ali’s Surah, in your prayers, whether they be obligatory or optional. He who recites it will be with him (Husain ibn Ali) at the same place in Heaven on the Day of Judgement”.

this Surah as Husain-ibn-Ali’s Surah may be for the reason that the clear example of the‘serene soul’
as mentioned at the end of the Surah, is Husain-ibn-Ali (as), as the idea has also been cited from Imam Sadiq (as) about the same verses.Or, perhaps, it is for the same reason that one of the commentaries about the ‘Ten Nights’ means the first ten nights of Muharram, (the first month of the Muslim new year), which is closely relevant to Husain-ibn-Ali (as)

🌺Hazrat Suleman Alaihi Salam Ke Zamane May Ek Shaks Ne Ek Khubsurat Khushnuma (Bolne Wala) Parinda Kharida! Use Jab Pinjre May Daala To Ek Dusra Parinda Udta Hua Us Pinjre Ke Paas Aaya Aur Apni Zabaan May Kuch Bolker Chaldiya! 
🌺Uske Baad Us Qaidi Parinde Ne Pinjre May Bolna Bandh Kerdiya Aur Bilkul Chuppi Saadh Li! Maalik Ne Yeh Dekha To Hazrat Suleman Alaihi Salam Ke Paas Faryaad Leker Pahucha! Hazrat Suleman Alaihi Salam Ne Wo Pinjra Mangwaya Aur Parinde Se Farmaya Ki Tumahre Maalik Ne Tumeh Keemat Deker Kharida Hain Uska Tumper Haq Hain, Tumne Bolna Kyon Bandh Kiya? 
🌺Parinde Ne Jawab Diya, Huzoor Isse Keh Dijiye Ki Wo Mera Khayal Chhod De! Main Jabtak Pinjre May Hoon Kabhi Na Bolunga! Farmaya Kyon? Usne Kaha, Huzoor Main Watan Aur Aulaad Ki Mohabbat May Rota Tha Ki, Ek Mera Bhai Parinda Mujhse Aaker Kaha, Nadaan, Jaza Wa Faza Chhod Do Warna Umr Bhar Pinjre May Hi Qaid Rahega! Sabr Wa Sukoot (Khamosh Rehna) Ikhtiyar Ker, To Fir Dekho Tum Aazaad Hote Ho Ki Nahi?
🌺Suleman Alaihi Salam Ne Us Shaks Se Uska Jawab Bayaan Kiya To Us Shaks Ne Kaha, Huzoor! To Fir Aazaad Kerdijiye! Maine To Ise Khushnumayi Keliye Kharida Tha!
🌺Chunanche, Suleman Alaihi Salam Ne Apni Girah Se Uski Keemat Deker Us Parinde Ko Aazaad Kerdiya!
