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.

5. They are the ones for whom there is an evil punishment, and in the Hereafter they will be the greatest losers [5].

[5] The lives of such people are like unbridled camels. Everyone's interests clash with those of others. So, even in this world, such people remain at a loss, and in the Hereafter, their loss is a certainty. They will face such an evil end that they could not even have imagined.
