Revealed in Makkah, Surah At-Tin (The Fig) swears by the fig, the olive, Mount Sinai, and the secure city of Makkah to declare that God created human beings in the best of molds. It warns that those who turn away from faith will be reduced to the lowest of the low, while the believers who do good deeds will have an uninterrupted reward, concluding with a powerful reminder that God is the most just of judges.
