About the Sura:

Surah Al-Ahzaab is the 33rd surah (chapter) of The Glorious Quran. Name of the surah means The Allies. It has 73 ayaat (verses) and was revealed in the holy city of Medina i.e., after Prophet ﷺ migrated to the city of Medina. This surah is spread across 2 juz/paaras. 21st juz contain verses 1-30, 22nd juz contain verses 31-73.

Introduction:

This Medinian sûrah takes its name from the enemy alliance (mentioned in verses 9-27) which laid a siege around Medina during the Battle of the Trench in 5 A.H./627 C.E. While the believers are reminded of Allāh's aid against the enemy alliance, the hypocrites are condemned repeatedly. The sûrah provides social guidelines regarding adoption, divorce, modesty, and the etiquette of dealing with the Prophet ( ﷺ ) and his wives. In view of Allāh's favours to the believers (including His forgiveness and generous reward at the end of the sûrah), the next sûrah starts off with praises to Allāh.
