Al-Kawthar
Al-Kawthar () is the 108th chapter (sūrah) of the Quran. It is the shortest chapter, consisting of three ''ayat'' or verses:: Verily, We have granted you abundance. : So pray to your Lord and sacrifice [to Him alone]. : Indeed, your enemy is the one cut off.
There are several opinions regarding its timing and contextual background of revelation (''asbāb al-nuzūl''). According to Ibn Ishaq, it is an early Meccan surah, revealed in Mecca.
The word ''Kawthar'' is derived from the triliteral root (k - th - r), meaning "to increase, to be plentiful, abundance." It appears in the Qur'an solely in this sūrah. Provided by Wikipedia
