The exegesis explains each passage of the Qur'an by the reports and narrations from the Islamic prophet Muhammad, his companions and the immediate generations following the Companions. Suyuti compiled all the reports and narrations that he could gather for each particular passage. The work was also mandatory for study in the Ottoman curriculum.[2]
