Surah Al Isra With English Translation
Channel: Talawate Quran
Date: 2020-04-21

Al-Isra’ (Arabic: الإسراء‎, al-isrāʼ; meaning: The Night Journey) is the 17th chapter (sūrah) of the Quran, with 111 verses (āyāt). It is about Isra. This sura is part of a series Al-Musabbihat surahs because it begins with the glorification of God.

Regarding the timing and contextual background of the supposed revelation (asbāb al-nuzūl), it is an earlier "Meccan surah", which means it is believed to have been revealed in Mecca, instead of later in Medina.
