Question:

Which Surah is Called (sanam al-Quran )?
Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

 

Ibn Hibbaan reported from Sahl ibn Sa’d that the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) said: "Everything has a peak (Sanam) and the peak (Summit) of the Quran is Chapter Al Baqarah [Quran 2]"

The same Hadeeth was also reported by At-Tirmithi, Ad-Daarimi, Al-Haakim, At-Tabaraani and Al-Bayhaqi may Allaah have mercy upon them.

Allaah Knows best.
