Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali

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){ اِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا بِاللّٰهِ وَ رَسُوْلِهٖ …: ’’ لَمْ يَرْتَابُوْا ‘‘ ’’رَيْبٌ‘‘} is from the form of ifti‘āl. After negating the claim of faith by the Bedouins, Allah Almighty has stated one internal and one external condition of faith. Thus, He said that the true believers are only those who believed, then did not fall into doubt, and they proved their faith and conviction by performing jihad with their wealth and lives in the way of Allah. These are the people who are truthful in their claim of faith. As for those who claim faith but when the opportunity for jihad comes, they try to save themselves from it, they are liars in their claim.

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.

15. 1. Not those who merely profess Islam with their tongues and do not make any effort at all to perform the aforementioned deeds.

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. The (true) believers are only those who believe in Allah and His Messenger, then do not doubt [25], and strive with their wealth and their lives in the way of Allah. It is they who are the truthful.

[25] In this verse, by presenting a comparison between the believers and the hypocrites, it is explained that true believers have complete faith in Allah, His promises, and His Messenger. They are not self-interested; therefore, whatever Allah and His Messenger command, they obey immediately and, when necessary, even sacrifice their lives and wealth. Unlike the hypocrites, they do not seek excuses or ways to escape. Such people are the truthful ones.
