Chapter Overview
Chapter 13: Surah Saba (Sheba) is a thought-provoking Makki Surah in the Class 9 Tarjama Tul Quran syllabus published by the Punjab Curriculum and Textbook Board (PCTB / PECTAA). The Surah contrasts genuine gratitude for divine blessings with the peril of arrogance, ungratefulness, and denial of the Day of Judgment.
Surah Saba recounts the extraordinary blessings bestowed upon Hazrat Dawud (A.S)-for whom iron was made pliable and mountains joined in glorification-and Hazrat Sulaiman (A.S)-who commanded the wind, had a fountain of molten brass, and oversaw subservient Jinn. In sharp contrast, it details the downfall of the prosperous people of Saba, whose fertile double gardens were utterly devastated by the torrential flood of the dam (Sayl al-Arim) when they turned away in ingratitude. It also affirms the universal mission of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as a bearer of good tidings and a warner to all humanity.
These notes provide complete verse translations, crucial vocabulary, solved textbook exercises, MCQs, and exam-focused short and long conceptual questions designed to help SSC Part 1 students excel across all Punjab Boards (Lahore, Rawalpindi, Gujranwala, Faisalabad, Multan, Bahawalpur, Sargodha, Sahiwal, and D.G.
