In it, difficult issues have been presented in very simple terms in order to make the last and final testament of Allah Almighty accessible to scholars as well as the general reader.

This new and modern commentary, that answers the questions and issues of the contemporary world, is the product of the relentless decade-long hard work, research and literary efforts of the author and exegete, Shaykh Muhammad Imdad Hussain Pirzada, and at present stands as the magnum opus of his written works.
