Introduction โ€” from Tafheem-ul-Quran

A Makkan surah answering a scoffer who demanded the punishment be hastened. It describes the Day whose measure is fifty thousand years, man's created restlessness โ€” anxious when evil touches him, grudging when good does โ€” and the exception: those constant in prayer, in whose wealth is a known right for the beggar and the deprived.

Condensed from Sayyid Abul A'la Maududi's introduction to this surah in Tafheem-ul-Quran.
