Al-Kawthar is the 108th and shortest chapter of the Quran. It has only 3 verses:

  1. Lo! We have given thee Abundance;
  2. So pray unto thy Lord, and sacrifice.
  3. Lo! it is thy insulter (and not thou) who is without posterity.

There is debate over when the Surah was revealed earlier or later in Muḥammad's life. Ibn Isḥaq believes that the Surah was before the Isra and Miraj in Mecca.
