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 75) ➊ { لَا يُفَتَّرُ عَنْهُمْ: ’’فُتُوْرٌ‘‘} To have a pause or halt in something, or for its strength or speed to gradually decrease, as it is said: {’’فَتَرَتِ الْحُمّٰي‘‘} "There was a decrease or pause in the fever." {’’ لَا يُفَتَّرُ ‘‘} (in the form of Bab Taf'il) means that no kind of pause or decrease will be allowed in their punishment.

{ وَ هُمْ فِيْهِ مُبْلِسُوْنَ:} Even the hope of deliverance from affliction brings some comfort; by saying this, even the hope was negated, that they will remain in that Hell, disappointed and hopeless.

The tafsir provides detailed historical context for verses related to battles and expeditions, and firmly refutes modernist ideologies using strong scriptural evidence.

75. The punishment will never be lightened for them [70], and they will remain there in utter despair.

[70] ﴿يُفَتَّرُ﴾ ﴿فتر﴾ means a gradual decrease in the strength or speed of something: weakness after strength, or a gradual slowing down after swiftness. "Fatoor" means sluggishness or stagnation after speed. Thus, the punishment given to the people of Hell will neither decrease nor will there ever be any pause in it. When such severe punishment continues for them for long periods without any reduction or pause, they will ultimately despair of any such relief or respite.
