Abstract:
Drawing on more than thirty five works of Qur’anic exegesis and related sciences, this commentary comprehensively explains Surah al-Ikhlas (The Purity of Faith), also called Nuru’l-Qur’an (The Light of the Qur’an). Revealed in response to a question posed to the Prophet (SAW) asking him to explain the lineage of Allah, the Surah, despite its brevity, explains the foundations of our belief in Allah, the core principles upon which faith in Tawhid is built and the basic maxims outlining shirk. It is for this reason that the Prophet (SAW) stated that this chapter was the equivalent to one third of the Qur’an and it was in light of this that al-Hasan al-Basri said, ‘This chapter is pure, it does not contain mention of anything to do with this world or the next,’ since it talks only of our Lord, Most High.

False claim
Assallam allaikum
In the article it says:
“this commentary [u]comprehensively[/u] explains Surah al-Ikhlas”
If I think it is a very bold claim and perhaps there may have been a mistake. Quran is the book with infinite knowledge and intelligence, to say that any one or any text [u]comprehensively[/u] covers the knowledge found within a Surah appears to be an insult.
I would imagine that the wisdom in the Quran can never be fully grasped. This tafsir may cover a large percentage of all the knowledge already available about Surah al-Ikhlas.
Please advise if I am correct to believe so or not.
