Quran 28:51~54
Islam, Quran , , , , , , ,
Indeed, We have steadily delivered the Word ˹of Allah˺ to the people so they may be mindful. ˹As for˺ those ˹faithful˺ to whom We had given the Scripture before this ˹Quran˺, they do believe in it. When it is recited to them, they declare, “We believe in it. This is definitely the truth from our Lord. We had already submitted ˹even˺ before this.” These ˹believers˺ will be given a double reward for their perseverance, responding to evil with good, and for donating from what We have provided for them. Quran 28:51~54
Surah al-Qasas [The Story] takes it name from being mentioned in [28:25],

So when he came to him and related to him the story, he said,
“Fear not. You have escaped from the wrongdoing people.”
This Surah has 88 Ayat.

۞ وَلَقَدۡ وَصَّلۡنَا لَهُمُ ٱلۡقَوۡلَ لَعَلَّهُمۡ یَتَذَكَّرُونَ ٱلَّذِینَ ءَاتَیۡنَـٰهُمُ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ مِن قَبۡلِهِۦ هُم بِهِۦ یُؤۡمِنُونَ وَإِذَا یُتۡلَىٰ عَلَیۡهِمۡ قَالُوۤا۟ ءَامَنَّا بِهِۦۤ إِنَّهُ ٱلۡحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّنَاۤ إِنَّا كُنَّا مِن قَبۡلِهِۦ مُسۡلِمِینَ أُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكَ یُؤۡتَوۡنَ أَجۡرَهُم مَّرَّتَیۡنِ بِمَا صَبَرُوا۟ وَیَدۡرَءُونَ بِٱلۡحَسَنَةِ ٱلسَّیِّئَةَ وَمِمَّا رَزَقۡنَـٰهُمۡ یُنفِقُونَ
The basic theme of this Surah is the prophethood. Some aspects of the life of Prophet Moses -peace be upon him- are mentioned to show the similarity between him and Prophet Muhammad – peace be upon all the prophets of Allah. There are also answers here to the questions and doubts that were raised by some non-believers.
اور ہم پے درپے اُن لوگوں کے پاس (ہدایت کی) باتیں بھیجتے رہے ہیں تاکہ نصیحت پکڑیں جن لوگوں کو ہم نے اس سے پہلے کتاب دی تھی وہ اس پر ایمان لے آتے ہیں اور جب (قرآن) اُن کو پڑھ کر سنایا جاتا ہے تو کہتے ہیں کہ ہم اس پر ایمان لے آئے بیشک وہ ہمارے پروردگار کی طرف سے برحق ہے اور ہم تو اس سے پہلے کے حکمبردار ہیں ان لوگوں کو دگنا بدلہ دیا جائے گا کیونکہ صبر کرتے رہے ہیں اور بھلائی کے ساتھ برائی کو دور کرتے ہیں اور جو (مال) ہم نے اُن کو دیا ہے اس میں سے خرچ کرتے ہیں
