Chapter Overview
Chapter 17: Surah At-Tahrim (The Prohibition) is the 66th Surah of the Holy Quran, revealed in Madinah, and serves as the culminating chapter in the Class 12 Tarjama Tul Quran curriculum established by the Punjab Curriculum and Textbook Board (PCTB / PECTAA). Prompted by a domestic incident in the household of the Holy Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, the Surah cautions against making unlawful what Allah has rendered lawful and provides the legal mechanism for expiating oaths.
The Surah places paramount emphasis on family welfare and moral upbringing, issuing a powerful command to believers: "Protect yourselves and your families from a Fire whose fuel is men and stones". It calls upon humanity to turn to Allah with unblemished, sincere repentance (Tawbah Nasuhah), promising complete purification of sins and admission into Paradise. The chapter concludes with profound parables of individual accountability through four contrasting historical women-highlighting the spiritual betrayal of the wives of Prophets Nuh (AS) and Lut (AS), alongside the steadfast righteousness and sublime devotion of Hazrat Asiya (the wife of Pharaoh) and Hazrat Maryam bint Imran (AS).
These comprehensive study notes include accurate English translations, essential Quranic vocabulary, thoroughly solved textbook exercises, MCQs, and conceptual short and long questions aligned with SLO guidelines for intermediate students across all Punjab educational boards.
