In preparation for this revelation, God loosens the strict regulation on night prayer.
In the beginning of this surah, God prepares Muhammad for an important revelation.
Many commentators claim that “The Enfolded One” is a name for Muhammad, used throughout the Qur'an. The last Ruku of this surah contains only one ayāt making it possibly the smallest Ruku according to the number of verses or ayāt.Īl-Muzzammil takes its name from the reference to prophet Muhammad, in his cloak praying at night, in the opening verses of the chapter. Al-Muzzammil ( Arabic: المزمل, “The Enshrouded One”, “Bundled Up”, “Enfolded”) is the seventy-third chapter ( sūrah) of the Qur'an, containing 20 verses ( āyāt), which are recognized by Muslims as the word of God ( Allah).
