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.
➋ { وَ لَمْ يَتَّخِذْ وَلَدًا :} This is the second attribute; for details, see the commentary of the last verse of Surah Bani Isra'il. In this is a refutation of the Jews and Christians, and also of those false Muslims who consider the Prophet (peace be upon him), or Ali, Fatimah, Hasan, and Husayn (may Allah be pleased with them), or anyone else, to be a part of Allah's light.
➌ { وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَّهٗ شَرِيْكٌ فِي الْمُلْكِ :} This is the third attribute. In {’’ لَمْ يَكُنْ ‘‘} there is the continuity of negation, which is why it is translated as "nor has there ever been any partner with Him in His sovereignty." In this is a refutation of all kinds of polytheists, such as idol worshippers, grave worshippers, those who believe in two gods, and those who commit hidden shirk, etc.
➍ { وَ خَلَقَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ فَقَدَّرَهٗ تَقْدِيْرًا :} This is the fourth attribute: that He alone created everything, then determined for it a specific measure, by virtue of which only those actions and effects are produced from it for which it was created, and He granted it that form, size, and abilities which were needed according to its requirements. For example, He granted humans understanding and perception, reflection and contemplation, skill and craft, and the ability to perform beneficial tasks. Similarly, every animal, plant, and inanimate object was made according to the purpose required from it. When no one except Allah has created anything, then why worship anyone else? See Surah An'am (102), Ra'd (16), Fatir (3), Zumar (62), Mu'min (62), Hajj (73), Nahl (20), and A'raf (191).

Argument on Allah Not Having Offspring:
That is, the complete authority and control over the entire universe—in today's terms, sovereignty—is in His hands alone. And when this is accepted, all kinds of partners are automatically negated, because everything is owned by Allah and He is their Owner. And since a son is not owned, and we have already accepted that everything is owned by Allah, then any genealogical relationship with anyone is also automatically negated.

What is Allah’s Measure for Everything?
Allah Almighty has created everything, whether living or non-living, and then He has also assigned a function and set laws for each thing, which it cannot transgress. For example, there is no living being that does not have to face death. Everything that comes into existence will certainly perish at some point. It is not possible for water to start flowing upwards at any time, or for it to stop flowing downwards. Nor is it possible for fire to start giving coolness. You cannot feed a dog the finest and most abundant foods and make it reach the height of a horse. In short, Allah Almighty has set certain limits and functions for each thing. And this is Allah’s measure for everything.
