Al Baqarah

Al-Baqarah (سورة البقرة)

Al-Baqarah is the second and longest chapter of the Qur'an (286 verses), revealed in Medina. Its name means "The Cow," derived from a story involving the Israelites. The chapter covers a wide range of subjects including worship, fasting, pilgrimage, finance, justice, marriage, and divine guidance. One of its most significant verses is Ayat al-Kursi (2:255), known for its spiritual protection. It encourages believers toward patience, piety, and social ethics. Al-Baqarah is often regarded as a comprehensive summary of the Quran’s teachings and a powerful spiritual protection.
