The sciences of the Quran are vast and numerous. Therefore, anyone intending to delve into the noble science of exegesis must be well-versed in these sciences and master them to become a qualified interpreter. The reasons for revelation are one of these sciences, as the interpreter must explain the reasons behind the revelation of the verses. This is the most essential aspect to understand and the one to which the interpreter should direct their attention, since it is impossible to interpret a verse and understand its meaning without knowing its story and the reason for its revelation. Furthermore, it is not permissible to speak about the reasons for the revelation of the Book except through narration and hearing from those who witnessed the revelation and were aware of the reasons.
Today, there is a pressing need among students of this field for a comprehensive book on the reasons for revelation. This book fulfills that need, providing a central resource for those seeking knowledge and those discussing the revelation of the Quran. It allows them to discern the truth, avoiding obfuscation and falsehood, and to appreciate its reliability after understanding its nature. The author began by discussing the principles of revelation and the manner in which the Quran was initially revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), including Gabriel's role in delivering the revelation, and by briefly outlining the circumstances. He then moved to the core of the subject: a detailed explanation of the reason for the revelation of each verse for which a specific, transmitted reason has been narrated.
Author: Al-Wahidi (d. 468 AH/1076 CE), Ali ibn Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Ali al-Wahidi, al-Naysaburi, al-Shafi'i (Abu al-Hasan), a commentator, grammarian, linguist, jurist, poet, and historian. He was originally from Sawa and belonged to a family of merchants. He died in Nishapur in Jumada al-Thani, having reached an advanced age. Among his works are: "Al-Basit," a commentary on the Quran in approximately 16 volumes; "Al-Maghazi" (The Campaigns); "Sharh Diwan al-Mutanabbi" (Commentary on the Diwan of al-Mutanabbi); "Al-Ighrab fi al-I'rab" (The Eloquence in Grammar); and "Nafi al-Tahrif 'an al-Qur'an al-Sharif" (Refutation of Distortion in the Noble Qur'an).

This book is one of the best and most accurate books on the reasons for revelation ever written. May God have mercy on Imam Al-Wahidi and reward him on our behalf and on behalf of all Muslims with the best of rewards.

A great book... It brings you one step closer to the Quran, which most of us only skim over... and even then, we fall short.
- Mahmoud Al-Nuwaishi
I found what I was looking for in it: a concise and useful guide. It leads you to what you are searching for. What I didn't like was the lack of separation between the surahs, which made searching for a specific verse more difficult.
- We are all just passing through
It's wonderful to learn about the verses and the reasons for their revelation. You'll also learn some stories about the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his companions (may God be pleased with them).

I got the book from my father's library; it seems to be an old copy from Dar Al-Fikr. It follows the chapters from Surah Al-Baqarah to Surah Al-Mu'awwidhatayn, but it doesn't mention all the reasons for the revelation of each chapter.
