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 { لَاَقْعُدَنَّ لَهُمْ:} That is, I am already astray, I will also mislead them. (Muwaddih) Here, instead of being Jabri, Satan became Qadari, saying I will do this and I will do that, whereas earlier he said that You did everything. It is clear that both the misguidances of being Jabri and Qadari (denier of predestination) are present in Satan, while faith is between these two.

The Accusation of Iblis Against Allah Almighty:
Iblis further committed the crime of blaming Allah Almighty for his disobedience and misguidance, and said that You commanded me to prostrate to a creature who was inferior to me, which hurt the pride and honor of my self, and You put me in such a trial that I was compelled to disobey You. And since Adam ؑ became the means of my misguidance, therefore, now, in whatever way I can, I will mislead him and his progeny by every possible trick, and You will come to know that I will succeed in leading the majority of Adam and his progeny astray; only a few servants will remain who will be obedient and grateful to You.
