Al-Alaq (Arabic: العلق‎, "The Clot" or "The Clinging Thing"), is the 96th chapter (surah) of the Qur'an (Quran / Quraan). This sorat is positioned in Para 30 which is also known as Juz Amma (Juz' 30). It is composed of 19 verses (ayat), and traditionally believed to have been the first revelation to Muhammad (pbuh) in Mecca (Makkah) at the Cave of Hira located at Mountain Jabal al-Nour. It is traditionally understood the first five ayats of Surah Alaq were revealed, however this is not the first fully complete Surah to be revealed and was actually revealed in 3 parts. It is sometimes also known as Surat Iqra (سورة إقرا, "Read").

Hadith / Hadees:
The first and foremost exegesis / tafsir of the Qur'an (AlQuran / AlQur'an) is found in hadis of Muhammad (pbuh). Although scholars including ibn Taymiyyah claim that Muhammad (pbuh) has commented on the whole of the Qur'an (Al-Quran / Al-Qur'an), others including Ghazali cite the limited amount of narratives, thus indicating that he has commented only on a portion of the Qur'an (Mushaf / Koran). Hades (حديث) is literally "speech" or "report", that is a recorded saying or tradition of Muhammad (pbuh) validated by isnad; with Sirah Rasul Allah these comprise the sunnah and reveal shariah. According to Hazrat Aishah (r.a), the life of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was practical implementation of Qur'an (Kuran / Furqan). Therefore, higher count of hadith elevates the importance of the pertinent surah from a certain perspective. According to hadith, first 5 ayaat of this surah were first revelation of whole of the Quran.

Narrated Yahya: I asked Aba Salama, "Which Sura of the Qur'an was revealed first?" He replied, "O you, wrapped-up' (Al-Muddaththir / Mudassir)." I said, "I have been informed that it was, 'Read, in the Name of your Lord who created (i.e. Surat Al-Alaq)
Abu Huraira reported: We performed prostration along with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) (as he recited these verses: )" When the heaven burst asunder"(Al-Inshiqaq) and" Read in the name of Thy Lord (Al-Alaq)"

The term ʻalaqah is the second stage of human prenatal development (sura Al-Mu’minoon / Mominoon) which "descriptively encompasses the primary external and internal features" of the early embryo. The term ʻalaqah also occurs in several languages related to Arabic. In Hebrew there is עֲלוּקָה alûqāh (or alukah), the generic name for any blood-sucking worm or leech, and in Aramaic and Syriac there are words with apparently similar meanings.

On the virtue of reciting this Surah, there is a tradition from Imam Sadiq (as) who said:
"He who recites Surah 'Alaq on a day or a night and passes away on the same day or night, at the time of the Day of Judgment, he will be considered as a martyr and Allah will raise him to life again as a martyr and He will resurrect him as one who has fought the holy war, on the way of Allah, in the presence of the Messenger of Allah.”
Because of the different words used at the beginning, this Surah is called: 'Alaq, Iqra', or Qalam.

Surat Al- Alaq merupakan surat pertama yang diwahyukan kepada nabi Muhammad urutan surat 96 dan mempunyai 19 ayat. Jadi mengapa surah al alaq diturunkan pertama kali ?sebab diturunkannya surat tersebut karena perintah pertama yang Allah swt turunkan kepada Nabi Muhammad saw yaitu "Iqra" bacalah itulah perintah yang pertama kali Allah berikan kepada Nabi Muhammad saw.

Sesuai dengan bacaan pertama surat Al Alaq iqra artinya bacalah, nah sebagai umat islam harusnya kita sering belajar membaca Al-Quran untuk memahami makna dan kandungan dari Al-Quran sebagai petunjuk hidup , Dan pada akhir- akhir ini banyak acara yang menanyangkan hafidz Quran hal ini sesuai dengan Firman Allah Bahwasanya Allah akan menjaga dam memelihara Keaslihan Al-Quran, Alhamdulillah membuat banyak orang ingin berlomba-lomba untuk menghafalkan Kalam Allah.
