Watoori seeneen (surah Tin: 2)

Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(95:2) and by the Mount Sinai, *2

Wa toori sineen

*2) The words in the original are Tur- i-Sinin. Sinin is another name for the Sinai Peninsula. It is called Sama or Sina as well as Sinin. In the Qur'an itself at one place the words Tur-i-Sinin. have been used. Since the land in which Mt. Sinai is located is well known as Sina, we have adopted this well known name in the translation.
