A Book of Perfected Verses
Introduces a Book of perfected, detailed verses calling people to worship Allah alone and repent, promising good provision, and reminds that Allah knows what people hide.

Colors in Creation and Those Who Truly Fear Allah

A Messenger Sent to the Unlettered
Tells that Allah sent a Messenger from among the unlettered people to recite His verses, purify them, and teach them the Book and wisdom, as a favor He gives to whom He wills.
Do Not Hurry to Recite the Qur'an
Tells the Prophet ﷺ not to move his tongue quickly to memorize the revelation, because Allah will gather it in his heart, recite it, and explain it to him.
Recite in the Name of Your Lord
Commands reciting in the name of the Lord who created man and taught by the pen. Warns the arrogant man who stops a servant from praying, and says not to obey him but to prostrate and draw near.
