هُوَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكُم مِّن تُرَابٍۢ ثُمَّ مِن نُّطْفَةٍۢ ثُمَّ مِنْ عَلَقَةٍۢ ثُمَّ يُخْرِجُكُمْ طِفْلًۭا ثُمَّ لِتَبْلُغُوٓا۟ أَشُدَّكُمْ ثُمَّ لِتَكُونُوا۟ شُيُوخًۭاۚ وَمِنكُم مَّن يُتَوَفَّىٰ مِن قَبْلُۖ وَلِتَبْلُغُوٓا۟ أَجَلًۭا مُّسَمًّۭى وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ ‎ ‏هُوَ ٱلَّذِى يُحْىِۦ وَيُمِيتُۖ فَإِذَا قَضَىٰٓ أَمْرًۭا فَإِنَّمَا يَقُولُ لَهُۥ كُن فَيَكُونُ
There are seven Surahs (al-Mu’min, HaMim al-Sajdah, al-Shura, al-Zukhruf, al-Dukhan, al-Jathiyah, al-Ahqaf) that begin with the word “HaMim”. Thus these seven Surahs are also called “al-Hawamim”. These are Surahs of Da’wah, inviting people to believe in Allah, take advantage of the mercy of Allah. There is solace and comfort in these Surahs for the Believers who were persecuted because of their faith and they are given the good news that the truth will prevail.
وہی تو ہے جس نے تم کو (پہلے) مٹی سے پیدا کیا۔ پھر نطفہ بنا کر پھر لوتھڑا بنا کر پھر تم کو نکالتا ہے (کہ تم) بچّے (ہوتے ہو) پھر تم اپنی جوانی کو پہنچتے ہو۔ پھر بوڑھے ہوجاتے ہو۔ اور کوئی تم میں سے پہلے ہی مرجاتا ہے اور تم (موت کے) وقت مقرر تک پہنچ جاتے ہو اور تاکہ تم سمجھو وہی تو ہے جو زندہ کرتا ہے اور مارتا ہے ۔ پھر جب وہ کوئی کام کرنا (اور کسی کو پیدا کرنا) چاہتا ہے تو اس سے کہہ دیتا ہے کہ ہوجا تو وہ جاتا ہے
