Quiz 148 – Which is the surah that does not start with Bismillah?

Correct Answer is :

C) Surah Al-Tawbah

Description:

Surah Al-Tawbah (also known as Surah Bara’ah) is the only surah in the Qur’an that does not begin with “Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem.”

Scholars explain this omission as a reflection of the surah’s stern tone, as it deals with matters of war and divine justice against those who broke their covenants.

The absence of “Bismillah,” which signifies mercy, aligns with the surah’s theme of warning and accountability.
