Publication history
Ahmad Kaka Mahmood first started writing his Tafsir of the Qur'an in 1992, completing his work and publishing it in 2005. It was then reprinted in 2012. An abridged version of Tafsiri Raman, with its contents revised by the author's son Irfan Ahmad Kaka Mahmood, was published in 2020.

Content
Written in the Sorani language, the content of Tafsiri Raman concerns the exegesis and interpretation of verses from the Qur'an. Ahmad Kaka Mahmood refrained from using Israʼiliyyat as much as possible in his Tafsir. His approach to Qur'anic interpretation was done as close as possible to how the Tabi'un and Tabi' al-Tabi'in did it, with a few minor differences.
