QUESTION #8252
Question 1
Which Surah was recited by the Holy Prophet (PBUH) at the time of Hijrah?
Correct Answer Explanation
This is a repeat of question 166. When the Prophet (PBUH) left his home during Hijrah while Quraish surrounded his house intending to kill him, he recited the beginning verses of Surah Yaseen (36:9): 'And We have put before them a barrier and behind them a barrier and covered them, so they do not see.' As he recited these verses and threw dust toward them, Allah blinded them, and he passed through safely. Hazrat Ali (RA) slept in the Prophet's bed that night as a decoy.
