Commentary
The spirit and core of the religion is "Tauhīd" Oneness of Allāh, a perfect and comprehensive reality of Oneness has been mentioned in this Sūrah that has blocked all avenues towards polytheism. This Sūrah leaves no doubt regarding Allāh's Self, His Attributes and allows no one to share the essential meanings of these Attributes. The fruit and end of the Oneness is Paradise; Love for this Sūrah and reading it repeatedly is an evidence of the love for "Tauhīd", steadfastness and consistency upon it. Therefore the destination of such a person will be Paradise; may Allāh Almighty make us punctual and habitual readers of it. Amen!
