So much so that a large number of the Muslims had to emigrate from Arabia to Habash, and those who remained behind were besieged in Shi'ib Abi Talib along with the Holy Prophet and his family. But during the third stage they employed the weapons of persecution, man handling and economic pressure for the same purpose. During the second stage the Quraish mainly resorted to ridiculing, scoffing, threatening, tempting, raising objections and making false propaganda against the Holy Prophet and his followers in order to suppress the Islamic Movement. What distinguishes this stage from the second and the fourth stages is this. According to that division the third stage lasted from the fifth to the tenth year of Prophethood.

This is the first of those Surahs which were sent down in the third stage of Prophethood at Makkah.
