Introduction โ from Tafheem-ul-Quran
Revealed after the first pause in revelation, commissioning the covered one: 'Arise and warn, and magnify your Lord, and purify your garments.' It records the calculated slander of al-Walid ibn al-Mughirah, who called the Quran 'magic handed down' โ and warns of Saqar, over which are nineteen; every soul is held in pledge for its own deeds.
Condensed from Sayyid Abul A'la Maududi's introduction to this surah in Tafheem-ul-Quran.
