The Glorious Qur`an

47: Muhammad (muhammad)

This chapter was revealed after Iron 57 and before Thunder 13, and following the victory at Badr. It consists of four sections in 38 verses from Madina except for V.18 (II) which was revealed during the Transfer or Hijra in the year 622 A. D., and possibly V. 3 which came six years later during the truce at Hudaybiyya in the year 6 / 623. Its rhythm is sustained or punctuated by means of assonance.

The chapters in the Qur'an now are becoming noticeably shorter. The name of the Prophet as a title is found in V.2 (I), while ` fighting" is mentioned in V.

20 (III); these form the alternate titles to the chapter. The topic discussed is the problem of conduct during warfare (I).
