In conclusion:

Working on this monumental volume is no easy task. It requires extensive scholarly expertise and technical experience, access to manuscripts and source materials, resolute and determined people, patience and perseverance, and—above all—sincerity of intention toward Allah in serving His Book and making this great scholarly encyclopedia accessible to students of knowledge. We earnestly hope that the critical edition and publication of this work will be completed in a manner pleasing to Allah, Glorified is He, and fulfilling the needs of those who benefit from it.

Numerous efforts have been devoted to serving this tafsīr. Some have involved collecting its manuscripts, while others have addressed the text in various respects.

Among the most notable of these are the efforts undertaken at the Center for Arabic and Islamic Research and Studies at Dār Hajr, which has pioneering experience in this field.

Our thanks are due to the researchers and staff of the Center, and we ask Allah to reward them well. I also extend my thanks to my brother, Professor Dr. Abd al-Sanad Hasan Yamāmah, the Center’s director, for his interest, cooperation, and continued oversight of the publication of this tafsīr. May Allah reward him with goodness for all that he has done and for the burdens he has borne.

We likewise ask Allah for aid, success, and right guidance; to make this work sincerely for His sake; to bring benefit through it; to assist in its completion; to accept it; and to reward everyone who has contributed to its critical edition, publication, and distribution. He alone is the Guardian of this and has power over it. May Allah bless our Prophet Muhammad and grant him peace.
