Surah Ikhlas is a brief yet profound chapter of the Quran that emphasizes the absolute oneness and uniqueness of Allah (Tawheed). In just four verses, it teaches that Allah is one, eternal, self-sufficient, and beyond comparison. He has no children, nor was He ever born, and nothing in creation resembles Him.
This surah reminds Muslims of the core of Islamic faith—that Allah alone is worthy of worship and devotion. It is frequently recited in daily prayers and carries immense spiritual reward, with Hadith highlighting that its recitation is equivalent to one-third of the Quran in meaning.
Key lessons from Surah Ikhlas:
1. Oneness of Allah – Allah is unique and singular.
2. Self-sufficiency – Allah depends on nothing, yet all creation depends on Him.
3. Incomparability – No one and nothing resembles Allah.
Here’s the full transliteration of Suratul Ikhlas (Chapter 112 of the Quran) in Arabic letters with Translation in English.
Arabic
قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ
اللَّهُ الصَّمَدُ
لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ
وَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ
Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim.
1. Qul huwal-lahu ahad
2. Allahus-samad
3. Lam yalid wa lam yoolad
4. Wa lam yakul-lahu kufuwan ahad
Meaning of transliteration:
Qul = Say
Huwa Allahu Ahad = He is Allah, the One
Allahu Samad = Allah, the Eternal, Absolute
Lam yalid wa lam yoolad = He begets not, nor is He begotten
Wa lam yakun lahu kufuwan ahad = And there is none comparable to Him.
