The beauty of Tafseer is that it digs deep into everything about the Glorious Qur'an for Muslims to learn more about their Book.

It should be noted that Tafseer of the Glorious Qur'an is not limited only to the month of Ramadan, however, most Muslim preachers do the Tafseer in the month of Ramadan, because the Glorious Qur'an was revealed in the month of Ramadan. Likewise, Ramadan fasting is all about the Glorious Qur'an.
