The title is derived from the direct mentioning of the Islamic prophet Muhammad in 47:2. It also has the name of Al-Qitāl (Arabic: القتال), which translates to fighting due to the context of the sura. This sura pertains to a specific conflict that arose from people prohibiting the acceptance and spread of Islam. It refers to the Battle of Badr, where an army was being gathered to attack Medina. The Battle of Badr took place during Ramadan, in year 2 of the Islamic calendar.

Quran 9:71~72

The believers, both men and women, are guardians of one another. They encourage good and forbid evil, establish prayer and pay alms-tax, and obey Allah and His Messenger. It is they who will be shown Allah’s mercy. Surely Allah is Almighty, All-Wise. Allah has promised the believers, both men and women, Gardens under which rivers flow, to stay there forever, and splendid homes in the Gardens of Eternity, and—above all—the pleasure of Allah. That is ˹truly˺ the ultimate triumph. Quran 9:71~72
The name of the surah, at-Taubah is derived from ت و ب and it occurs 87 times in the Quran. Interestingly, this surah has the highest usage of the words derived from ت و ب compared to all other surahs – it is used 17 times.
In Ayat 118, occurs the case of the three companions whom Allah turned to and accepted their tawbah to Him – those who had abstained from joining the Jihad at the Battle of Tabuk.

وَٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَتُ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَآءُ بَعْضٍۢ ۚ يَأْمُرُونَ بِٱلْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ ٱلْمُنكَرِ وَيُقِيمُونَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَيُؤْتُونَ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَيُطِيعُونَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥٓ ۚ أُو۟لَٓئِكَ سَيَرْحَمُهُمُ ٱللَّهُ ۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌۭ ‎ ‏وَعَدَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَتِ جَنَّتٍۢ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَرُ خَلِدِينَ فِيهَا وَمَسَكِنَ طَيِّبَةًۭ فِى جَنَّتِ عَدْنٍۢ ۚ وَرِضْوَنٌۭ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ أَكْبَرُ ۚ ذَلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ
This is the only Sūrah of the Qur’ān to which ‘In the Name of God, Most Gracious Most Merciful’ is not prefixed. Though the commentators have given different reasons for this, the correct one that which has been given by Imām Razi: namely this is because the Prophet himself did not dictate it at the beginning of the Sūrah. Therefore the Companions did not prefix it and their successors followed them. This is a further proof of the fact that utmost care has been taken to keep the Qur’ān intact so that it should remain in its complete and original form.
اور مومن مرد اور مومن عورتیں ایک دوسرے کے دوست ہیں کہ اچھے کام کرنے کو کہتے ہیں اور بری باتوں سے منع کرتے اور نماز پڑھتے اور زکوٰة دیتے اور خدا اور اس کے رسول کی اطاعت کرتے ہیں۔ یہی لوگ ہیں جن پر خدا رحم کرے گا۔ بےشک خدا غالب حکمت والا ہے خدا نے مومن مردوں اور مومن عورتوں سے بہشتوں کا وعدہ کیا ہے جن کے نیچے نہریں بہہ رہی ہیں (وہ) ان میں ہمیشہ رہیں گے اور بہشت ہائے جاودانی میں نفیس مکانات کا (وعدہ کیا ہے) اور خدا کی رضا مندی تو سب سے بڑھ کر نعمت ہے یہی بڑی کامیابی ہے

Quran 57:10~12

And why should you not spend in the cause of Allah, while Allah is the ˹sole˺ inheritor of the heavens and the earth? Those of you who donated and fought before the victory ˹over Mecca˺ are unparalleled. They are far greater in rank than those who donated and fought afterwards. Yet Allah has promised each a fine reward. And Allah is All-Aware of what you do. Who is it that will lend to Allah a good loan which Allah will multiply ˹many times over˺ for them, and they will have an honourable reward? On that Day you will see believing men and women with their light shining ahead of them and on their right. ˹They will be told,˺ “Today you have good news of Gardens, under which rivers flow, ˹for you˺ to stay in forever. This is ˹truly˺ the ultimate triumph.” Quran 57:10~12

وَمَا لَكُمْ أَلَّا تُنفِقُوا۟ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَلِلَّهِ مِيرَثُ ٱلسَّمَوَتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ لَا يَسْتَوِى مِنكُم مَّنْ أَنفَقَ مِن قَبْلِ ٱلْفَتْحِ وَقَتَلَ ۚ أُو۟لَٓئِكَ أَعْظَمُ دَرَجَةًۭ مِّنَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَنفَقُوا۟ مِنۢ بَعْدُ وَقَتَلُوا۟ ۚ وَكُلًّۭا وَعَدَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْحُسْنَىٰ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبِيرٌۭ ‎ ‏مَّن ذَا ٱلَّذِى يُقْرِضُ ٱللَّهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًۭا فَيُضَعِفَهُۥ لَهُۥ وَلَهُۥٓ أَجْرٌۭ كَرِيمٌۭ ‎ ‏يَوْمَ تَرَى ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَتِ يَسْعَىٰ نُورُهُم بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَبِأَيْمَنِهِم بُشْرَىٰكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ جَنَّتٌۭ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَرُ خَلِدِينَ فِيهَا ۚ ذَلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ ‎‎ ‎
The theme of this Surah is to exhort the Muslims to spend in the cause of God. At the most critical juncture of the history of Islam when it was engaged in a life and death struggle against Arab paganism, this Surah was revealed to persuade the Muslim’s to make monetary sacrifices in particular, and to make them realise that Islam did not merely consist in verbal affirmation and some outward practices but its essence and spirit is sincerity towards God and His Religion. The faith of the one who was devoid of this spirit and who regarded his own self and wealth as dearer to himself than God and His Religion, was hollow and therefore of little worth in the sight of God. For this object, first the attributes of God Almighty have been mentioned so that the listeners may fully realize as to Who is addressing them.
اور تمہیں کیا ہوگیا جو الله کی راہ میں خرچ نہیں کرتے حالانکہ آسمانوں اور زمین کا ورثہ تو الله ہی کے لیے ہے تم میں سے اور کوئی اس کے برابر ہو نہیں سکتا جس نے فتح مکہ سے پہلے خرچ کیا اور جہاد کیا یہ ہیں کہ الله کے نزدیک جن کا بڑا درجہ ہے ان لوگو ں پر ہے جنہوں نے بعد میں خرچ کیا اور جہاد کیا اور الله نے ہر ایک سے نیک جزا کا وعدہ کیا ہے اور الله تمہارے کاموں سے خبردار ہے ایسا کون ہے جو الله کو اچھا قرض دے پھر وہ اس کو ا سکے لیے دگنا کر دے اوراس کے لیے عمدہ بدلہ ہے جس دن آپ ایماندار مردوں اور عورتوں کو دیکھیں گے کہ ان کا نور ان کے سامنے اور ان کے داہنے دوڑ رہا ہوگا تمہیں آج ایسے باغوں کی خوشخبری ہے کہ ان کے نیچے نہریں چلتی ہیں وہ ان میں ہمیشہ رہیں گے یہی وہ بڑی کامیابی ہے

All knowledge and authority belongs to God. Have faith in Allah’s power, make sacrifice and give charity for the cause of truth.
Light and Life are for the Believers. The disbelievers walk in darkness. Warning to those who refuse to acknowledge Allah. Sincere in faith are those who are willing to sacrifice and help the poor and needy..
The life of this world is temporary. Compete with each other in doing good things to receive the eternal reward from Allah. Prophets were sent to establish justice with authority.
References to Prophets Noah, Ibrahim, and Jesus -peace be upon them all. All Prophets preached same message, but some of their followers went into extremes. The Christians thus invented monasticism for themselves. It was not commanded by God. The Believers are asked to have faith and walk in the light of Allah. The final success belongs to the Believers.

Quran 2:282

O believers ! When you contract a loan for a fixed period of time, commit it to writing. Let the scribe maintain justice between the parties. The scribe should not refuse to write as Allah has taught them to write. They will write what the debtor dictates, bearing Allah in mind and not defrauding the debt. If the debtor is incompetent, weak, or unable to dictate, let their guardian dictate for them with justice. Call upon two of your men to witness. If two men cannot be found, then one man and two women of your choice will witness—so if one of the women forgets the other may remind her. The witnesses must not refuse when they are summoned. You must not be against writing ˹contracts˺ for a fixed period—whether the sum is small or great. This is more just ˹for you˺ in the sight of Allah, and more convenient to establish evidence and remove doubts. However, if you conduct an immediate transaction among yourselves, then there is no need for you to record it, but call upon witnesses when a deal is finalized. Let no harm come to the scribe or witnesses. If you do, then you have gravely exceeded ˹your limits˺. Be mindful of Allah, for Allah ˹is the One Who˺ teaches you. And Allah has ˹perfect˺ knowledge of all things. Quran 2:282

The surah encompasses a variety of topics and contains several commands for Muslims such as enjoining fasting on the believer during the month of Ramadan; forbidding interest or usury (riba); and several famous verses such as The Throne Verse, Al-Baqara 256, and the final two or three verses. The surah addresses a wide variety of topics, including substantial amounts of law, and retells stories of Adam, Ibrahim (Abraham) and Musa (Moses). A major theme is guidance: urging the pagans (Al-Mushrikeen) and the Jews of Medina to embrace Islam, and warning them and the hypocrites (Munafiqun) of the fate God had visited in the past on those who failed to heed his call.
مومنو! جب تم آپس میں کسی میعاد معین کے لئے قرض کا معاملہ کرنے لگو تو اس کو لکھ لیا کرو اور لکھنے والا تم میں (کسی کا نقصان نہ کرے بلکہ) انصاف سے لکھے نیز لکھنے والا جیسا اسے خدا نے سکھایا ہے لکھنے سے انکار بھی نہ کرے اور دستاویز لکھ دے۔ اور جو شخص قرض لے وہی (دستاویز کا) مضمون بول کر لکھوائے اور خدا سے کہ اس کا مالک ہے خوف کرے اور زر قرض میں سے کچھ کم نہ لکھوائے۔ اور اگر قرض لینے والا بےعقل یا ضعیف ہو یا مضمون لکھوانے کی قابلیت نہ رکھتا ہو تو جو اس کا ولی ہو وہ انصاف کے ساتھ مضمون لکھوائے۔ اور اپنے میں سے دو مردوں کو (ایسے معاملے کے) گواہ کرلیا کرو۔ اور اگر دو مرد نہ ہوں تو ایک مرد اور دو عورتیں جن کو تم گواہ پسند کرو (کافی ہیں) کہ اگر ان میں سے ایک بھول جائے گی تو دوسری اسے یاد دلادے گی۔ اور جب گواہ (گواہی کے لئے طلب کئے جائیں تو انکار نہ کریں۔ اور قرض تھوڑا ہو یا بہت اس (کی دستاویز) کے لکھنے میں کاہلی نہ کرنا۔ یہ بات خدا کے نزدیک نہایت قرین انصاف ہے اور شہادت کے لئے بھی یہ بہت درست طریقہ ہے۔ اس سے تمہیں کسی طرح کا شک وہ شبہ بھی نہیں پڑے گا۔ ہاں اگر سودا دست بدست ہو جو تم آپس میں لیتے دیتے ہو تو اگر (ایسے معاملے کی) دستاویز نہ لکھوتو تم پر کچھ گناہ نہیں۔ اور جب خرید وفروخت کیا کرو تو بھی گواہ کرلیا کرو۔ اور کاتب دستاویز اور گواہ (معاملہ کرنے والوں کا) کسی طرح نقصان نہ کریں۔ اگر تم (لوگ) ایسا کرو تو یہ تمہارے لئے گناہ کی بات ہے۔ اور خدا سے ڈرو اور (دیکھو کہ) وہ تم کو (کیسی مفید باتیں) سکھاتا ہے اور خدا ہر چیز سے واقف ہے

Let those of you who are willing to trade the life of this world for the life to come, fight in Allah’s way. To anyone who fights in Allah’s way, whether they achieve martyrdom or victory, We shall give a great reward Why should you not fight in Allah’s cause and for those oppressed men, women, and children who cry out, ‘Lord, rescue us from this town whose people are oppressors ! By Your grace, give us a protector and give us a helper !’ The believers fight for Allah’s cause, while those who reject faith fight for an unjust cause. Fight the allies of Satan: Satan’s strategies are truly weak Quran 4:74~76

An-Nisa’ (Arabic: ٱلنساء, An-Nisāʾ; meaning: The Women) is the fourth chapter (sūrah) of the Quran, with 176 verses (āyāt). The title derives from the numerous references to women throughout the chapter, including verse 34 and verses 127-130.
تو انہیں اللہ کی راہ میں لڑنا چاہئے جو دنیا کی زندگی بیچ کر آخرت لیتے ہیں اور جو اللہ کی راہ میں لڑے پھر مارا جائے یا غالب آئے تو عنقریب ہم اسے بڑا ثواب دیں گے، اور تمہیں کیا ہوا کہ نہ لڑو اللہ کی راہ میں اور کمزور مردوں اور عورتوں اور بچوں کے واسطے جو یہ دعا کررہے ہیں کہ اے ہمارے رب ہمیں اس بستی سے نکال جس کے لوگ ظالم ہیں اور ہمیں اپنے پاس سے کوئی حمایتی دے دے اور ہمیں اپنے پاس سے کوئی مددگار دے دے، ایمان والے اللہ کی راہ میں لڑتے ہیں اور کفار شیطان کی راہ میں لڑتے ہیں تو شیطان کے دوستوں سے لڑو بیشک شیطان کا داؤ کمزور ہے
Thematically, “an-Nisā” not only addresses concerns about women, but also discusses inheritance, marriage laws, how to deal with children and orphans, legal practices, jihād, relations between Muslim communities and People of the Book, war, and the role of Jesus as a prophet, rather than the son of God as Christians claimed.[5] Furthermore, in discussing war, this surah encourages the Muslim community to fight for the vulnerable in war,[7] as demonstrated by 4:75: “Why should you not fight in God’s cause and for those oppressed men, women, and children who cry out, ‘Lord, rescue us from this town whose people are oppressors! By Your grace, give us a protector and give us a helper!’?”[9] The surah addresses a multitude of issues faced by the early Muslim community and responds to the challenges the community faced.
