Tafsir Ahsan al-Bayan — Hafiz Salahuddin Yusuf
Tafsir Ahsan al-Bayan is a well-known Quran commentary by Hafiz Salahuddin Yusuf, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar from Pakistan. This tafsir explains the meanings of the Quran in accordance with the methodology of the Salaf (early righteous generations), relying on authentic sources and straightforward language. 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.
56. 1. That is, the Being in whose hand is the control and authority over everything, He alone is my and your Lord; my trust is in Him alone. The purpose of these words from Hud (علیہ السلام) is that those whom you have set up as partners with Allah, even they are under Allah's control and authority; Allah can do whatever He wills with them, they themselves can do nothing.
56. 2. That is, the call to monotheism that I am giving is indeed the straight path; by following it, you can attain salvation and success, and turning away or deviating from this straight path leads to destruction and ruin.
