Surah Al-An'am (Chapter 6), specifically verses 151-153, contains what are commonly referred to as the 'Ashrah' or ten commandments of the Quran. These verses outline fundamental moral and spiritual injunctions including the prohibition of shirk (associating partners with Allah), kindness to parents, prohibition of killing children due to poverty, avoidance of indecencies, prohibition of unjust killing, care for orphans, just dealings in trade, and the command to follow the straight path. These commandments form a comprehensive ethical framework in Islam.
Surah Al-An'am is a Makkan surah and the sixth chapter of the Holy Quran. The ten commandments found in verses 151-153 are sometimes compared to the Ten Commandments given to Prophet Musa (Moses) in the Torah. The surah was revealed before the migration to Madinah and deals extensively with the concept of Tawheed and refutation of polytheism. The commandments cover both rights of Allah and rights of fellow human beings.
