About this episode

"Chapter of Muhammad" is the 47th chapter of the Quran with 38 verses

The title is derived from the direct mentioning of the Islamic prophet Muhammad in 47:2.[2] It also has the name of Al-Qitāl (القتال), which translates to fighting due to the context of the sura.[3] This sura pertains to a specific conflict that arose from people  prohibiting the acceptance and spread of Islam. It refers to the Battle of Badr, where an army was being gathered to attack Medina. The Battle of Badr took place during Ramadan, in year 2 of the Islamic calendar

Muḥammad bin ʿAbd Allāh bin ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib bin Hāshim (مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ ٱللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ ٱلْمُطَّلِبِ بْنِ هَاشِمٍ‎; c. 570 – 8 June 632 CE), is believed to be the seal of the messengers and prophets of God in all the main branches of Islam.

Muslims believe that the Quran, the central religious text of Islam, was revealed to Muhammad by God, and that Muhammad was sent to restore Islam, which they believe did not originate with Muhammad but is the true unaltered original monotheistic faith of Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and other prophets. As an act of respect, Muslims follow the name of Muhammad by the Arabic benediction sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam, (meaning Peace be upon him), sometimes abbreviated as "SAW" or "PBUH".
