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 The interpretation of the verse can also be that these people do not worship the One Lord alone and not accept Muhammad (ﷺ) as the Messenger because they themselves are the owners of the treasures of your Lord, or that He is under their command, so they are the masters of their own will, doing whatever they please? Obviously, this is not the case at all.

37. 2 "Musaytir" or "Musaytar" is from سَطْر, meaning "the one who writes," that is, a protector and overseer. Since he writes all the details, it is also used in the sense of protector and overseer. That is, do they have control over Allah's treasures or His mercies, that they may give to whom they will or withhold from whom they will?

[31] This is an answer to an objection of the disbelievers. They used to say that if Allah had to appoint a human as a Messenger, was this the person He chose for the task? Were the chiefs of Makkah and Ta'if dead? In response, Allah Almighty said: Are these people the owners of the treasures of Allah’s mercy? Or has Allah given them the authority to distribute His treasures so that they may grant any blessing to whomever they wish?
