Are you here to know which is the Smallest Surah in Quran? Well, before you scroll down to check the name of the Surah, can you guess the name with the help of hints that I provide? Let’s give it a try…
The Surah is the 108th chapter of the Quran, found in the 30th Parah (Juz), which consists of just 3 verses, and it talks about the river in Paradise.
Can you guess it now? Any clue about it? Well, I hope you guessed it…
If not, then the name of the smallest surah of the Qur’an is Surah Kausar (Al-Kawthar).
Surah Al-Kausar is the shortest surah in the Quran which consists of just 3 verses, 10 words.
We can see the reference of Kausar (Al-Kawthar) from the Hadith – At-Tirmidhi Hadith 2542
Anas bin Malik narrated that the Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) was asked:
“What is Al-Kawthar?” He said: “That is a river that Allah has given me”- that is, in Paradise- ‘whiter than milk and sweeter than honey. In it are birds whose necks are like the necks of camels.” ‘Umar said: “Indeed this is plump and luxurious then.” So the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said, “Those who consume it are more plumb than it.”
There are 114 Surahs in the Holy Qur’an with each Surah holding its own benefit and meaning. Some Surahs of the Holy Qur’an are short yet extremely powerful such as 4 Qul Surahs. Surah Kausar is the shortest of all, which means Abundance.
