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 11){ اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَ عَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ … :} Here, regarding the glad tidings of Paradise for those who have faith and do righteous deeds, there are two points of relevance: First, if those who persecute the Muslims also come to faith and become righteous in their deeds, then for them too are those gardens beneath which rivers flow. Second, the Muslims who possess faith and righteous deeds and are being thrown into the furnaces of trial should not grieve; this time will pass, and in the Hereafter, those magnificent gardens are prepared for them beneath which rivers flow, and the greatest success is this. The reality is that the thing which keeps the believers steadfast in trials and hardships is Allah’s promise that He will grant them Paradise. How unjust are those people who, under the guise of spirituality, mock Paradise and try to declare it insignificant. For details, see the exegesis of Surah As-Sajdah, Ayah (16).

11. Indeed, those who believe and do righteous deeds, for them will be gardens beneath which rivers flow [7]; that is the great success.

[7] At the same time, believing men and women are comforted that they should not be disheartened by the persecutions of the disbelievers. Even before them, great calamities have been inflicted upon the believers. In return for enduring these hardships, the gardens and blessings that they will receive from Allah are such that all the pains and troubles of this world are insignificant in comparison.
