It then describes how each chapter's contents reveal the harmony between the higher purpose and the means to achieve it. In tafsir's available trends, the maqasidic method has yet to be treated exclusively and has been subject to only partial and inclusive discussions. We must understand that each verse and chapter of the Quran has a maqsid, which means an aim, purpose, objective, goal, and wisdom.

They both go together, with one's faith in Allah predicting the quality of the good deeds a person does, and the good deeds they do reflecting the nature of their faith in Allah.
