٣  وَهَٰذَا الْبَلَدِ الْأَمِينِ

By the fig and the olive

And [by] Mount Sinai

And [by] this secure city [Makkah],   Surah Teen 95:1-3

Importance Of 4 Oaths Taken In This Surah

This Surah begins by swearing a series of oaths: By the Fig, The Olive, Mount Sinai, and the Secure City. Just after that, it mentions that “God created Man in best of mold / stature.” All four Oaths thus show that they are symbolizing the place of high importance in human history.

What Does “Fig” Mean Here?

Some say that Fig & Olive represent the regions surrounding Jerusalem and thus pointing towards the place where Jesus was sent as a Messenger. But in my opinion, these are two different places. Fig is pointing to Prophet Nuh who was actually the first prophet with a scripture and father of all the humans in the sense

that all surviving humankind was from his progeny and secondly as per Quran his boat came to rest at mount Al Judi present-day Mount Ararat in the extreme east of Turkey. And even now if you check that where in the world most Fig is produced than Turkey is the number one in rank.

Significance Of 2nd Oath “By The Olive”

The second Oath “By Olive” not only pointing to Jesus as many commentators believe but its pointing to the vast area surrounding the Mediterranean where God sent thousands of prophet from Abraham till Jesus.

3rd Oath “Mount Sinai”
