Introduction โ from Tafheem-ul-Quran
One of the earliest revelations, sworn by the pen and what they write. It defends the Prophet ๏ทบ against the charge of madness โ 'indeed you are upon a magnificent character' โ tells the parable of the garden-owners who resolved to give the poor nothing, and counsels patience unlike the companion of the fish (Yunus).
Condensed from Sayyid Abul A'la Maududi's introduction to this surah in Tafheem-ul-Quran.
