Surah Ad-Duḥa was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ during a period of silence in revelation — a time when he felt deep sadness and concern that his Lord might have turned away from him. This chapter came as a divine reassurance, a message of comfort and renewed hope. Allah swore by the bright morning light (Ad-Duḥa) and the calm of the night to remind His beloved Prophet that He had neither forsaken him nor forgotten him.
The Surah beautifully conveys a universal message — one of light after darkness, hope after despair, and faith after moments of uncertainty. It reminds every believer that Allah’s mercy never departs, even when life feels still or silent.
In this artwork, the warm golden hues represent the radiance of dawn, symbolising renewal, guidance, and divine reassurance. The subtle gradient from dark to light mirrors the journey of the soul from sadness to serenity — from despair to peace. The solitary figure walking toward the light reflects the believer’s journey guided by Allah’s promise of hope and healing.
