The tafsir provides detailed historical context for verses related to battles and expeditions, and firmly refutes modernist ideologies using strong scriptural evidence. It is widely regarded as an invaluable resource for understanding the Quran and countering deviant interpretations. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.

40. Allah said, "After a little while, they will surely become regretful [43]."

[43] That is, the measure of their sins has been filled. And very soon, punishment is about to descend upon them. When they see its signs, they will then regret their stubbornness, but at that time, neither will their regret be of any use to them, nor will their faith benefit them.
