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 32){ فَاَغْوَيْنٰكُمْ اِنَّا كُنَّا غٰوِيْنَ :} This is the fifth answer: that we had no power over you, but we ourselves were astray, and it is evident that only an astray person can be expected to call others towards misguidance, because whoever is astray naturally wants others to become like him, so that no one remains to blame anyone else. Therefore, it was inevitable that we would invite you towards misguidance, and we did so; it was your responsibility to use your intellect and not accept our words. Now, after choosing disbelief by your own will, do not hold us responsible for it.

Tafsir Ahsan al-Bayan — Hafiz Salahuddin Yusuf

Due to its reliability and adherence to sound Islamic scholarship, the Saudi government publishes and distributes this tafsir among the Hujjaj (pilgrims) visiting the Haramain. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.

32. 1. That is, the thing which they previously denied—that what power did we have over you that we led you astray—now here they admit that yes, indeed, we did lead you astray. But this admission is made with the warning that do not make us the object of blame in this matter, because we ourselves were also astray; we only wanted to make you like ourselves, and you easily adopted our way. Just as Satan will also say on that Day.
