who received the revelations and then they conveyed those to their followers.
Revelation is a message and guidance from Allah, the Arabic word for revelation
is Wahi. Guidance from Allah is called Hidayah.

Revelations were sent to Prophets in different ways:

· Revelation by inspiration- like a dream, for example: Allah

guided Prophet Ibrahim (A) to make a sacrifice of his son.

· Revelation by speech (behind the scenes), for example:

Allah spoke to Prophet Musa (A) in the mountain of Torah.

· Revelation through Angel, for example: Allah revealed the

Quran to Prophet Muhammad (S) through angel Jibril.
The first revelation of the Quran was 5 verses from Surah al-Alaq. Which are as follows:

“Read in the name of your Lord, Who created man from a clot of blood. Read and your Lord is
most Bountiful, Who taught (the use of) the pen, He taught man which he knew not.”

There was no revelation for a certain period after the first. The second revelation is the first
beginning verses of Surah Al-Muddather, which begins as follows-

“ O you, Who is covered in your cloak, arise and warn.”

Some of the earliest Surahs are Al-Muzzammil, Al-Fatiha, Al-Takweer, Al-A’laa, Al-Lael, Al-Fajr

The revelation continued till the death of the Prophet (S). It was approximately for 23 years.

One of the last revelations is–

“This day I (Allah) have perfected your religion for you, completed My favor upon you and
have chosen for you Islam as your religion.” Surah 5: verse 4
Names of Surahs
 Each of the 114 surahs has their own name. Allah
and His messenger have given a name to each
surah. Usually the surah is named from a word used
in that particular surah.
