Al-Fath (Arabic: الفتح, al-fatḥ; meaning: \"Victory\" , \"Triumph\") is the 48th chapter (surah) of the Qur\'an with 29 verses (ayat).

Al-Mu’minun (Arabic: المؤمنون, ’al-mu’minūn; meaning: \"The Believers\") is the 23rd chapter (sūrah) of the Qur\'an with 118 verses (āyāt). Regarding the timing and contextual background of the supposed revelation (asbāb al-nuzūl), it is an earlier \"Meccan surah\", which means it is believed to have been revealed in Mecca, instead of later in Medina.[1] This surah deals with the fundamentals of faith (Aqidah), Tawheed (Islamic monotheism), Risalah (Messengership), Resurrection and the supreme Judgement of God. The surah drives these themes home by drawing attention to God\'s creation of man through different stages in the mother\'s womb, His creation of the heavens and the earth, His sending down rains and growing plants, trees and fruits, and His providing of domestic animals with various benefits for man, all together with an emphasis on the fact that man shall die and shall be raised up on the Day of Resurrection.

Yā Sīn[1] (also Yaseen; Arabic: يٰسٓ, yāsīn; the letters \'Yāʼ\' and \'Sīn\') is the 36th sūrah of the Quran. It has 83 verses (āyāt). It is regarded an earlier \"Meccan surah\".

The surah begins with the eponymous (muqatta\'at) Arabic letters: يس (yā sīn).[3] The meaning of the letters Ya Sin, while being primarily unknown, is debated amongst Muslim religious academics. One of the interpretations is \"O human being!\" referring to Muhammad since the verses that follow are translated as \"By the Qur´an, full of Wisdom, Thou art indeed one of the messengers\".[4] Tafsir al-Jalalayn, a Sunni beginners exegesis (tafsir), concludes, \"God knows best what He means by these [letters].\"[5] The surah focuses on establishing the Qur\'an as a divine source, and it warns of the fate of those who mock God\'s revelations and are stubborn. The surah tells of the pu

Al-Qasas (Arabic: القصص, ’al-qaṣaṣ; meaning: The Story) is the 28th chapter (sūrah) of the Qur\'an with 88 verses (āyāt). কুরআন তিলাওয়াত || সুরাতুল ক্বসাস || Suratul Qasas || سورة القصص According to Ibn Kathir\'s commentary, the chapter takes its name from verse 25 in which the word Al-Qasas occurs. Lexically, qasas means to relate events in their proper sequence. Thus, from the viewpoint of the meaning too, this word can be a suitable title for this Surah, for in it the detailed story of the Prophet Moses has been related, also it includes story of Qarun from verse 76 to verse 83 explaining how Qarun was proud of himself thinking that his huge wealth earned by his own science, denying the grace of God on him and latter God destroyed him with his wealth underground. Summary 1-2 Muhammad receives the story of Moses for the benefit of believers 3 Pharaoh oppresses the Israelites 4-5 God determines to befri
Al-‘Ankaboot (Arabic: العنكبوت, al-‘ankabūt; meaning: The Spider) [1] is the 29th chapter (surah) of the Quran with 69 verses (āyāt). Regarding the timing and contextual background of the supposed revelation (asbāb al-nuzūl), it is considered an earlier \"Meccan surah\", which means it is believed to have been revealed in Mecca, instead of later in Medina. This is due to the introduction concerning the persecution of the Muslims. The early Muslims were persecuted in Mecca, where Muhammed was not a head of state and not persecuted in Medina, where he was a head of state and had some protection. The surah states that Nuh, Ibrahim, Lut, Shuaib, Hud, Saleh, Musa and Muhammad all were prophets of God. All of them endured hardships. For example, Noah was ridiculed often and Abraham was thrown into the fire. But God destroyed their people who transgressed. As it says in verse 40, So each We punished for his sin; of them was he on whom We sent down a violent storm, and of
Ar-Rum (Arabic: الروم, ’ar-rūm meaning: The Romans) is the 30th chapter (sūrah) of the Quran. It consists of 60 verses (āyāt). The term Rûm originated in the word \"Romans\" and in the time of Prophet Muhammad referred to the Byzantine Greeks (Eastern Roman Empire), hence the title is sometimes also translated as \"The Greeks\" or \"The Byzantines\".[1] The Sura provides information on how the cataclysmic Byzantine–Sasanian War of 602–628 looked to the Mecca Arabs, interested onlookers who were still unaware that within a single generation they themselves would enter the game of empire and defeat both Persians and Byzantines.

People with COVID-19 have had a wide range of symptoms reported – ranging from mild symptoms to severe illness. These symptoms may appear 2-14 days after exposure to the virus:
COVID-19 typically causes flu-like symptoms including a fever and cough.
In some patients - particularly the elderly and others with other chronic health conditions - these symptoms can develop into pneumonia, with chest tightness, chest pain, and shortness of breath.
It seems to start with a fever, followed by a dry cough.
After a week, it can lead to shortness of breath, with about 20% of patients requiring hospital treatment.
Notably, the COVID-19 infection rarely seems to cause a runny nose, sneezing, or sore throat (these symptoms have been observed in only about 5% of patients).Sore throat, sneezing, and stuffy nose are most often signs of a cold.
Examples of possible development of symptoms (from actual cases)
Using available preliminary data, the Report of the WHO-China Joint Mission published on Feb. 28 by WHO, [5] which is based on 55,924 laboratory confirmed cases, observed the following median time from symptoms onset to clinical recovery:
Typical symptoms of coronavirus include fever and a cough that may progress to a severe pneumoniacausing shortness of breathand breathing difficulties.
Fever, cough or chest tightness, and dyspnoeaare the main symptoms reported. While most cases report a mild illness, severe are also being reported, some of whom require intensive care.
Australian Government
The Australian Government Department of Health informs that symptoms can range from mild illness to pneumonia, adding that some people will recover easily, while others may get very sick very quickly. According to their list of novel coronavirus symptoms, people may experience:
fever
flu-like symptoms such as coughing, sore throat and fatigue
Below we list the symptoms, with percentages representing the proportion of patients displaying that symptom, as observed in hospitalized patients tested and identified as having laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 infection. These findings refer to hospitalized patients, therefore generally representing serious or critical cases. The majority of cases of COVID-19 (about 80%) is mild.
