وَكَذَٰلِكَ نُرِىٓ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ مَلَكُوتَ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَلِيَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلْمُوقِنِينَ ﴿75﴾
Thus did we show Ibrâhîm (Abraham) the kingdom of the heavens and the earth that he be one of those who have Faith with certainty.
وَكَذَٰلِكَ wakadhālika And thus
نُرِىٓ nurī We show(ed)
إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ib'rāhīma Ibrahim
مَلَكُوتَ malakūta the kingdom
ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ l-samāwāti (of) the heavens
وَٱلْأَرْضِ wal-arḍi and the earth

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.

By adding wāw and tā’ at the end of {مَلَكُوْتَ: ’’ مُلْكٌ ‘‘}, it is stated as {’’ مَلَكُوْتَ ‘‘}; the purpose of adding letters is to increase the meaning, therefore it has been translated as "great dominion." The meaning is that just as we have refuted shirk in the previous verses, likewise, We showed Ibrahim (peace be upon him) the great dominion of the heavens and the earth, among whose many purposes was also that he would attain the eyewitness certainty of tawheed. Similarly, he was also shown how Allah Almighty gives life to the dead.

Tafsir Ahsan al-Bayan is a well-known Quran commentary by Hafiz Salahuddin Yusuf, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar from Pakistan.

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.

75. 1. ملکوت is an intensive form, like رغبۃ becomes رغبوت and رھبہ becomes رھبوت. By this is meant the creation, as this meaning has been adopted in the translation. Or it refers to ربوبیت, meaning We showed him this and granted him the ability to recognize it. Or it means that from the Throne to the lowest earth, We showed Ibrahim (AS) the observation of unseen matters. (فتح القدیر)
