In this episode, we continue with the same message to the Israelites, reminding them of Allah's favour upon them and to submit to the truth of the scriptures coming from the Quran. This episode takes you through the time of Abraham a.s in Mecca, his prayers, raising the foundation of the sacred house and of submitting to only one God. The verses also speak of prophets that came before and the many messengers who came with the same message of worshipping to Allah alone. A new direction of prayer, an order to face Mecca in prayer, the truth about the prophet, God's order to face the sacred mosque and Allah's favour upon the believers are some of the messages you will find in the next recitation in this episode. So look out for them.

Sypnosis from The Clear Quran book by Dr. Mustafa Khattab: This Medinian sûrah, which takes its name from the story of the cow in verses 91–121, details the main concepts of the previous sûrah, with emphasis on the qualities of the believers, disbelievers, and hypocrites; Allah’s power to create and resurrect; the enmity of Satan towards Adam and his descendants; as well as Allah's covenant with Moses and the Children of Israel. Several rulings are given in regards to marital, relationships, bequest, jihad, fasting, pilgrimage, donations, debts, and interest. Unlike the next chapter, which focuses on the Christian perception of Jesus, this sûrah dedicates a sizable portion to Jewish attitudes and practices.
