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 If the water of the sea in its original state is given to crops, the crops wither and are destroyed, and if any living being drinks it, it will cut up its intestines, or at the very least injure them. But when the vapors of this same sea water are transferred into rain, then whether it is plants, animals, or humans, this water proves to be life-giving for all; the crops begin to flourish, and living creatures rejoice and sway with happiness at the arrival of winds even before the rain falls. Living creatures obtain food from plants, and Allah Almighty gives them pure, clean water to drink. Except for inanimate objects, there is no creature on this earthly universe whose life can be sustained without water. (Kilani)
➌ In these two verses as well, the oneness of Allah, the proofs of life after death, and the reminder of Allah’s blessings—all three things are present.

One Who Attributes Rain to the Movement of Stars is a Disbeliever:
If seawater in its original state is given to crops, the crops wither and are destroyed. And if any living being drinks it, it would tear apart their intestines or at the very least injure them. But when the vapors of this same seawater are transformed into rain, this water proves to be life-giving for all—plants, animals, and humans alike. The fields begin to flourish, and living creatures rejoice and sway with happiness at the arrival of winds even before the rain falls. It is from plants that living creatures obtain their food, and for their drinking, Allah Almighty provides pure and clean water. Except for inanimate objects, there is no creature on this earthly universe whose survival is possible without water.
