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.
86. 1 (بَقِیَّتُ اللّٰہِ) refers to that which is obtained after giving full measure and weight without any kind of deficiency, and dealing honestly. Since this is halal and pure, and all goodness and blessing is in it, it has been called the remainder of Allah.
86. 2 That is, I can only convey the message to you, and I am doing so by the command of Allah. But to prevent you from evils or to punish you for them, this is not within my power; both of these matters are only in the authority of Allah.
