  • Ibn Kathir
  • Ala-Madudi
  • Shaheen International

3.Either this Book or the Holy Prophet  ? should instill fear in the infidels, or the negligent people about the punishments of this world or the Hereafter. 

4.It should be remembered that the Holy QUR'AAN is the giver of glad tidings to the pious believers, and a binder of hope for the sinful believers. Says Allah Almighty: "Despair not of the mercy of Allah (S39 V53) Therefore, the restriction of good deeds is correct. In the terminology of the Saints, good deeds are those, which are performed for gaining the pleasure of Allah Almighty and His PROPHET Thus, Salaah offered for show is a bad act, while eating, drinking, sleeping and remaining awake for the pleasure of Allah Almighty is piety.
