About this surah

Al-Ikhlas is a tiny surah with a huge message. In just four ayahs it tells us who Allah is: He is One, He needs nothing, He was never born and has no children, and nothing is like Him. The Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, said this surah is worth a third of the Quran. It is easy to memorise and perfect to recite in prayer.
