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.
Allah said, "Descend from here. It is not for you [12] to be arrogant here. So get out; you are indeed among the disgraced."
[12] In reality, Iblis had three faults: first, he did not obey Allah's command; second, he separated himself from the group of angels among whom he lived when they were commanded to prostrate; third, instead of regretting this disobedience, he became arrogant, considered himself superior, and regarded our master Adamؑ as insignificant. Therefore, Allah's curse and wrath befell him, he became humiliated and disgraced, and this curse and wrath became his fate forever.
