surah

Name
It was called "Surat Saba'" because God Almighty mentions in it the story of Saba' who were the kings of Yemen and whose people lived in grace, prosperity, happiness and bliss. Their dwellings are gardens and gardens, but when they did not believe in grace, God destroyed them with a flood and made them a lesson for those who heed them.

Period of Revelation
Sura Saba was revealed in Mecca Al-Mukarrama between the eleventh and twelfth years of the Hijra, in the last period of the Muslims' life in Mecca Al-Mukarrama, where it was revealed after Surat Luqman, and the number of its verses is fifty-four. The themes of the sura revolve around the Islamic faith, such as the monotheism of God Almighty, belief in revelation, confirmation of the resurrection, and reward. The sura also contains a correction of some values related to faith, the most important of which is the statement about judgment and the final decision of reward with God Almighty: it is faith and good deeds, not money and children, and that there is no protection from God's wrath, and that there is no intercession except by His permission, the Exalted.

Theme and topics
The general Theme and topics contained in the sura are the main themes of faith: the monotheism of God, the belief in revelation, and the belief in resurrection. The details of the goals contained in the sura are as follows:

Abolition of the rules of polytheism, the greatest of which is the association of gods with God, and denial of the resurrection.
