Al-Ḥajj (Arabic: الحج, "The Pilgrimage, The Hajj") is the 22nd chapter (sūrah) of the Qur'an with 78 verses (āyāt). This Surah takes its name from the 27th ayat.
Time of revealation:
This Surat contains the qualities of both the Makki and the Madani Surahs, the tafsirs have contrasted as to its time of disclosure, however, in the light of its style and subjects, it appears that first 24 ayaat were sent down in the last phase of the Makki life of Muhammad (PBUH) a little before movement to Madinah and the rest of the Surah during the initial phase of his Madani life. That is the reason this Surah joins the qualities of both the Makki and the Madani Surahs.
Asbāb al-nuzūl:
Asbāb al-nuzūl, meaning occasions or circumstances of revelation, refers to the historical context in which Quranic verses were revealed. The rhetoric shift in the style of the discourse from 25th ayat shows that the ayaat 25 to 78 were most likely revealed during the month of Zul-Hijjah in the 1st year after Hijrah. This is shown by ayaat 25th to 41 and affirmed by the event of the disclosure of ayaat 39-40. The month of Zul-Hijjah more likely than not brought to the foreigners nostalgic recollections of their homes in Makkah and they probably thought of their Hallowed City and their Hajj congregation there and lamented to believe that the mushrik Quraish had suspended them from visiting the Sacred Mosque. Along these lines, they may even have been appealing to God for and anticipating that Divine authorization should take up arms against those despots who had ousted them from their homes and denied them of visiting the house of Allah and made it hard for them to follow the path for Islam. This thought process and resultant praying of muhajir[disambiguation needed] Muslims adds up to the Asbāb al-nuzūl the (context of the revelation). That is the reason for which Masjid-al-Haram was made has been explicitly referenced. It has been made clear that Hajj(pilgrimage) had been ordered for the worship of One Allah. However, it is an incongruity that a short time later it had been committed to the customs of shirk and the worshippers of One Allah had been suspended from visiting it. In this manner, consent for taking up arms against those despots has been given to remove them from that point and to set up the upright lifestyle for setting up prudence and eradicating evil. As indicated by Ibn Abbas, Mujahid, Urwah canister Zubair, Zaid receptacle Aslam, Muqatil container Hayyan, Qatadah and other tafsirs, ayat 39 is the 1st ayat that gives the Muslims authorization to take up arms. Assortments of Hadith and books on the life of Muhammad affirm that after this consent real arrangements for war were begun and the very 1st endeavor was sent to the shore of the Red Ocean in Safar A.H. 2, which is known as the Expedition of Waddan or Al-Abwa.
This Surat (Sorat) addresses: (1) The mushriks of Makkah, (2) the faltering Muslims, and (3) the Genuine Devotees. The mushriks have been cautioned in a mighty way with this impact: "You have adamantly and impudently persevered in your thoughts of ignorance and confided in your false-deities rather than Allah, however, they have no force at all and you have denied the Divine Messenger.
