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 15){ ثُمَّ اِنَّكُمْ بَعْدَ ذٰلِكَ لَمَيِّتُوْنَ :} Although every moment from dust and sperm-drop to death itself is a witness to life after death, because every cell of the body that exists perishes and is replaced by a new cell, and this process continues constantly, during which a person also transitions from childhood to youth and then to old age, yet very few reflect on this cycle of death and life. Therefore, Allah has described that stage of death which every person sees with their own eyes. Thus, with {’’ ثُمَّ ‘‘}, He pointed to the respite given to a person after birth for action, and with the emphasis of {’’إِنَّ‘‘ } and {’’لَام‘‘}, He said that then, after passing through all or some stages of life, in any case, you must die.

Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran — Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani

Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran (Facilitation of the Quran) is a comprehensive Quran commentary by Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar from Pakistan. 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.

15. Then after that, you will surely die [16].

[16] That is, your coming into this world was also not by your own choice, but according to the command of Allah. And now, if you wish to remain in this world and try to avoid death, this too is impossible. Because Allah’s law is that death will certainly come to you, and from here your life of the Hereafter will begin, just as your worldly life began from a drop of fluid. In other words, death lies at the border between worldly life and the life of the Hereafter.
