As Muslims, many of us don’t know about the importance and real meaning of important chapters of the Quran. Surah Al-Kafirun is one of the most important surahs of the Quran because it is also part of 4-Qul. 

Here I am going to explain to all of you the meaning and importance of this surah in the Quran.

This article will also guide you on how to behave with non-Muslims. So, are you ready to know about the miracles of this Surah in a very easy and understandable way? I will try my best to guide you in the right direction.

The word Al-Kafirun refers to “The unbelievers”, who did not believe in the oneness of Allah.

Al-Kafirun surah was revealed for non-believers who worshipped the other Gods rather than worship one Allah. So, this surah is the best guide for Muslims to have only believed in one Allah. Also, give the message to respond to anyone who does not believe in Islam and unity of the Allah.

The main theme of this surah is that there is no god but Allah. He is the only one who is praiseworthy. If someone worships the other god then he follows his religion. But for Muslims, Islam is the only religion and God is only Allah.

Surah Al-Kafiron was revealed in Mecca. So, it is a Makki surah. Islam holds the ayats of this surah to be extremely precious. As you know, it is the 109 chapter of the Quran and the total number of verses of this surah is 6. This surah has its importance due to different reasons.

• Firstly, this surah gives a lesson to Muslims to have strong faith in their religion and Allah.
• Secondly, this surah guides not to misbehave with other who does not accept Islam. But follow the right path to deal with everyone.
• Thirdly, this surah provides the answer for non-believers to only worship their gods. 
• Neither Muslims will worship their gods, nor will they worship the God of Muslims.

As I told you earlier, this surah was revealed in Mecca. This Surah was revealed for the following reason:

When some of the noble personalities between Qurayshi were invited to the Prophet (P.B.U.H) and advised that he should follow their religion and gods. And in return, they will also worship Allah and follow Islam. 

The main motive of Qurashis was to stop Prophet (P.B.U.M) from preaching Islam. Because they wanted no one to call their gods and religion false. So, in response, Allah revealed Surah Al-Kafirun for the guidance of Muslims and as an answer for disbelievers.

As the importance of Kafirun surah is huge in the Quran, likewise the benefits of this surah are numerous. Well, I am going to share how this surah is beneficial for us.
