Introduction โ€” from Tafheem-ul-Quran

An early-Makkan surah: when the sky splits open and the earth is stretched out, man โ€” toiling ever onward toward his Lord โ€” will meet Him. Whoever is given his book in his right hand will have an easy reckoning; the surah asks with sorrow, 'What is the matter with them that they do not believe, and when the Quran is recited to them they do not prostrate?'

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