Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Surahs were revealed in the Qur'an that contain synonymy, such as Surat al-Layl and Surat al-Duha.

Answer:
Synonymy? Yes, I do not know of any surahs that contain synonymy. In the speech of the Arabs, there is synonymy; when the word and the meaning agree, the speech becomes synonymous. This is the meaning of synonymy: when two words agree in both word and meaning, that is synonymous. And I do not know that the Qur'an is a chapter of synonymy. Yes.
