Sources and method
Everything on this site traces to a named source, so any reader can check it.
The Quranic text
The Arabic is the Uthmani script from the Tanzil project, and the English is the Sahih International translation. Both are copied verbatim from alquran.cloud by a script, never typed by hand, and every verse links to the same ayah on quran.com. Words in square brackets are the translators’ own additions for clarity.
Commentary
Notes marked “In the commentaries” come from Ibn Kathir’s tafsir in its English abridgement, read on quran.com. Where scholars differ, as on talh, the fig of Surah At-Tin, or the healing in honey, the page says so and gives each view. This site makes no medical claims about any food.

Photographs
The food photographs were made for this site with Google’s Nano Banana image model, then cut out with the open-source BiRefNet background-removal model and checked by eye. They show each food as it is commonly known; where the identification is disputed, as with talh, the page says so.
