Al-Jathiya should be viewed not only as a standalone chapter but also in connection with the broader socioreligious implications of Shia Islam. Given the historical marginalization and persecution faced by Shia communities, the themes in Al-Jathiya resonate as calls for perseverance and faithfulness.
