Quraysh 106:1–2
Two safe journeys
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
لِإِيلَٰفِ قُرَيْشٍ ١ إِۦلَٰفِهِمْ رِحْلَةَ ٱلشِّتَآءِ وَٱلصَّيْفِ ٢
The meaning, simply
Look at Allah's blessing on Quraysh, the people of Makkah: He made two journeys easy for them every year, a winter journey to Yemen and a summer journey to Syria. They travelled safely and came back with what they needed.

Think with me
If the road had been frightening, could Quraysh have travelled and traded? Who made it safe?
