La sourate At-Tawba (arabe : سورة التوبة, La Repentance) est la 9e sourate du Coran. Elle comporte 129 versets. C'est la seule sourate à ne pas commencer par la formulation caractéristique Au nom de Dieu, le Tout Miséricordieux, le Très Miséricordieux.
Cette sourate évoque le respect et le non-respect des alliances (v.1-37) et le manque de foi (v.38-127). Dans son ensemble, cette sourate se veut un manifeste contre ceux qui « s’opposent à l’exigence du combat contre les incroyants. Donner affirme que la sourate 9 « est de manière générale l’une des plus compromettantes et militantes de tout le Coran ».
At-Tawbah (Arabic: ٱلتوبة, at-Tawbah; meaning: The Repentance), also known as Bara'ah (Arabic: براءة, Barāʾah; meaning: Repudiation), is the ninth chapter (sūrah) of the Quran. It contains 129 verses (āyāt) and is one of the last Medinan surahs.
This Surah is reported to have been revealed at the time of the Battle of Tabuk in Madinah in the 9th year of the Hijrah. The Sanaa manuscript preserves some verses, on parchment radiocarbon dated to between 578/44bh and 669/49ah.
It is the only Surah of the Quran that does not begin with Bismillah, the usual opening formula, In the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the All-Compassionate. It deals with almost the same topics as those dealt with in Surat al-Anfal. In contrast to all other surahs, Muhammad did not order that this formula should be put at the beginning of this surah.
