Introduction โ€” from Tafheem-ul-Quran

Revealed during the famine that struck Makkah โ€” the 'smoke' that people saw covering the sky in their hunger. It warns that greater punishment awaits the deniers, recalls Pharaoh's people who left behind 'gardens and springs' overnight, and honours the blessed night in which the Quran was sent down.
