Explanatory Note

God’s kindled fire; which will rise over people’s hearts, it will close in upon them; in towering columns. In all this there is a kind of harmony between imagery and feelings and the actions of the ‘taunting, slandering backbiter.’At the time of its revelation, the Qur’an followed up the incidents faced by the Islamic message whilst also leading it along its way. The Qur’an is the infallible weapon which destroys the cunning of conspirators, shakes the hearts of enemies, and fills the believers with courage and determination to persevere. Indeed we recognise two significant facts in God’s care here as He denounces this sordid type of people: firstly, we are shown the ugliness of moral decline and how people are rendered so abject. Secondly, we realise that He defends the believers, preserves their souls against their enemies’ insults, shows them that God knows and hates what is inflicted on them, and that He will punish the wrongdoers. This is enough to elevate their souls and to make them feel their position high above the wicked designs of others.

All commentators are in agreement that it is a Makkan Surah; a study of its subject matter and style shows that this too is one of the earliest Surahs to be revealed at Makkah.
