Hizb 55 opens with the whole of Al-Mujadila, the Pleading Woman, named for a woman who brought her grievance to the Prophet over her husband's use of an old pre-Islamic formula to distance himself from her without a full divorce, a practice the sura addresses directly with a ruling on the expiation now required for it, alongside etiquette for private conversation and communal gatherings.
The whole of Al-Hashr, the Gathering, follows, addressing the exile of a Jewish tribe from Medina after a broken agreement, rulings on how the property they left behind should be distributed, and praise for the remarkable generosity the Medinan hosts, the Ansar, showed the Meccan emigrants who arrived needing support, closing with an extended recitation of God's own names and attributes. Al-Mumtahina follows, guiding believers on how to treat those who had fought against them differently from those who had not, and on verifying the sincerity of women arriving as new migrants to the community.
The hizb closes carrying the whole of As-Saff, the Ranks, urging that word and deed match, encouraging believers to stand together like a solid structure, and recalling Jesus foretelling a messenger to come after him bearing the name Ahmad, a verse central to how the Quran presents continuity between his message and Muhammad's own.
