Sura Ar-Rahman and its Meaning

Sura Ar-Rahman is of great significance. There are various points mentioned in this sura. It says that Allah Almighty is the one who blessed all the mankind with his teachings, and send Prophet Muhammad(P.B.U.H) as a messenger. Prophet Muhammad(P.B.U.H) served all the humanity with his teachings and taught the book of Quran to all mankind. It is mentioned that Allah is most kind and merciful, he is the creator of this universe. He sent down Quran for the guidance of all human kind.

This can be explained from the fact that Allah Almighty has created man, and it is the responsibility of creator to provide true guidance to his creature. Revelation of Holy Quran is a gift from Allah and it shows all people the right path to spend their lives in a better way. Another interpretation of this Sura is that if there were no creator of the universe, then who would be responsible for handling this universe, and if the creator did not show the right path then who could? There is another object to where Rahman was pointing and it is said in the Holy Quran:

“The Merciful (Ar-Rahman) has taught this Qur’an,’ it by itself gave the meaning that the revelation of the Qur’an for the guidance of mankind was nothing but Allah’s mercy and grace. As He is most kind and Merciful to His creation, He did not like that He should leave them wandering in the darkness, and His mercy demanded that He should send down this Quran to (give) them the knowledge on which depends their right guidance and conduct in the world and their success and well-being in the Hereafter.”
