Al-Hashr · As-Saff

59:1 (Al-Hashr) and 61:1 (Al-Saff) are verbatim identical in their opening: 'sabbaha lillahi ma fi al-samawati wa ma fi al-ard wa huwa al-'aziz al-hakim'.

Al-Fath · As-Saff

Third pair in the three-way set (see 9:33/48:28 and 9:33/61:9): all three share the opening about the Prophet sent with guidance to prevail over all religion; 9:33 and 61:9 are verbatim identical, while 48:28 ends 'sufficient is Allah as witness' instead of 'even if the polytheists dislike it.'

At-Tawbah · As-Saff

Identical verse about Allah sending His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth to make it prevail over all religions.

At-Tawbah · As-Saff

9:111 'inna Allah ishtara mina al-mu'minin anfusahum wa amwalahum bi anna lahum al-jannah' and 61:10-11 both describe the divine exchange of lives and wealth for Paradise — the same 'anfus + amwal' pair appears in both, but with different wording and context.
