Allaah sent him before the final hour as a bearer of glad tidings and as a warner: giving glad tidings of Paradise to the who fears Allaah, the Majestic and Exalted, and follows the Messenger; and as a warner and to bring fear of the punishment of Allaah and the fire for he who opposes the command of Allaah, the Majestic and Exalted, and disobeys the Messenger.
And I ask that Allaah makes everyone from those whom He has favoured with an infiltrative insight in solving doubts, and with beneficial knowledge that gives life to and aids
the hearts.And Allaah has made the revelation in the Qur’aan like the example of water, because with it is life for the hearts and with it is true insight into achieving solutions for doubts and their appearance.

“Its wording is clear and its style is simple, so that the students of knowledge can benefit from it and other than them from the general Muslims.
The precision of its categorization and the ease in benefiting from its subject matter, and this is achieved through the headings, which indicate the content and aid to understand it.”
