Sūrat ash-Shams ((アラビア語:الشمس), "The Sun") is the 91st sura of the Qur'an with 15 ayat. It opens with a series of solemn oaths sworn on various astronomical phenomena, the first of which, "by the sun", gives the sura its name, then on the human soul itself. It then describes the fate of Thamud, a formerly prosperous extinct Arab tribe. The prophet Saleh urged them to worship God alone, and commanded them in God's name to preserve a certain she-camel; they disobeyed and continued to reject his message, and God destroyed them all except those who had followed Salih. ==Name of the surah== Jalaluddin Al-Suyuti co-author of the classical Sunni tafsīr known as Tafsir al-Jalalayn suggests that some of the sūrahs have been named using incipits (i.e. the first few words of the sūrah). The Surah has been so designated after the word ash-shams with which it opens. Hamiduddin Farahi a celebrated Islamic scholar of Indian subcontinent is known for his groundbreaking work on the concept of Nazm, or Coherence, in the Quran. He writes that Some sūrahs have been given names after some conspicuous words used in them.〔http://al-mawrid.org/books/Exordium%20to%20the%20Coherence%20in%20the%20Quran.pdf〕 ''Touched by an Angel: Tafseer Juz ‘Amma'' is an AlMaghrib Institute Tafsir course〔http://www.ilmfruits.com/2007/touched-by-an-angel/〕 which further investigates that the sun (ash-shams) is mentioned in several surahs; the reason why is this one called Surah Shams is because, in it, the sun is mentioned four times.. Allah says: 91:1 وَالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَاهَا 92:2 وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَاهَا 92:3 وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّاهَا 92:4 وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَاهَا Translation:By the sun and its brightness, and () the moon when it follows it. And () the day when it displays it, and () the night when it covers it. (Ash-Shams, verses 1-4 ). Notice “it,” “it,” “it,” … in Arabic, the pronoun used is haa (هَا), which is feminine. And “coincidentally,” all the other nouns referred to are masculine; which only leaves Ash-Shams–the sun–which is a feminine word; that’s the “it” referred to in the first four ayaat.〔http://www.ilmfruits.com/2009/tafseer-surah-shams-one-mans-sin/〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ash-Shams」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
