Explanatory Note

As the surah reports the story in narrative form, it suddenly changes course and continues as though it is happening at this very instance. It now speaks about what is going to happen, stating it in the form of a threat: "Tomorrow they will know who is the insolent liar." This is one of the tools employed in Qur'anic narratives to give an air of actuality, transforming them from a mere tale to events taking place before spectators who are full of anticipation about their development. "Tomorrow they will know who is the insolent liar." They will see the truth for themselves. They will not be immune to the consequences of this truth which heralds destruction for insolent liars.

The incident of the ‘splitting of the moon’ (shaqq-al-Qamar) that has been mentioned in this Surah, determines its period of revelation precisely.
