Theme and subject matter
The surah opens with a description of God’s power, wisdom, and knowledge, and takes its name from “the day of dispossession” (yawm al-taghabun) mentioned in verse 9. God, the Creator, knoweth all things, is told in 3rd and 4th verse. The disbelievers are reminded of the end of those who disbelieved before them in verses 5 and 6. Unbelief will not prevent infidels from rising from the dead and their denial of the Resurrection is strongly refuted in verse 7. Next 3 ayaat then present exhortation to believe in God and his Apostle. In the discourse verses 11 to 13 prescribe to humanity that God is sovereign, therefore should be trusted. Further in verse 14, the believers are urged to be wary but forgiving of the enemies they may have within their own families and muslims are exhorted to abjure worldly ties and to devote themselves to God in ayaat 14 to 18 and are warned to remain steadfast and to spend in God’s cause in verse 8 and 16.
