Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim — Hafiz Abdus Salam Bin Muhammad Bhutvi

Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim is a 4-volume Quran commentary by Hafiz Abdus Salam bin Muhammad Bhutvi, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar and Sheikh ul-Hadith from Pakistan. Based on over 45 years of teaching and research, this tafsir follows the methodology of Tafsir bil-Ma'thur — interpreting the Quran through authentic Hadith, statements of the Companions, and the understanding of the early generations (Salaf). It is distinguished by its complete avoidance of Israeliyyat (Judeo-Christian narratives) and unverified reports. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.

(Ayah 10) {وَ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ لَيْسَ بِظَلَّامٍ لِّلْعَبِيْدِ :} For its exegesis, see Surah Al-Imran (182) and Al-Anfal (51). Some scholars have written another explanation that the pattern of {’’فَعَّالٌ‘‘} does not always indicate exaggeration, but sometimes it is only for attribution, that is, in the meaning of {’’ذُوْ شَيْءٍ‘‘} (possessor of something), like {’’سَمَّانٌ‘‘} (one with ghee), {’’ قَطَّانٌ ‘‘} (one with cotton), {’’حَدَّادٌ‘‘} (blacksmith), {تَمَّارٌ} (one with dates). The meaning is that here {’’ظَلَّامٌ‘‘} is not for exaggeration, but the intent is that Allah, the Exalted, is such a sublime being to whom even the attribution of injustice cannot be made.

Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran — Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani

Known for his eloquent and accessible writing style, Kilani authored this tafsir with a focus on clarity — making Quranic meanings understandable to the common reader. The tafsir provides detailed historical context for verses related to battles and expeditions, and firmly refutes modernist ideologies using strong scriptural evidence. It is widely regarded as an invaluable resource for understanding the Quran and countering deviant interpretations. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.

10. (And it will be said,) "This is the recompense for what your own hands have sent forth, for Allah never wrongs His servants [9]."

[9] Such a person actually commits three crimes: First, he denied divine revelation out of ignorance, prejudice, and stubbornness, while he has neither any empirical evidence, nor rational, nor transmitted proof. Second, he displayed arrogance and pride. Third, he became a cause for others to be kept away from the path of truth. Therefore, it will be made clear in the most explicit way that this is the recompense for your own deeds. And Allah does not have any desire to punish anyone needlessly, nor is it befitting for Allah to wrong anyone.
