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.
29. 1 Imam Ibn Kathir states that immediately after their death, all their souls go to Hell and their bodies remain in the grave (where Allah the Almighty, through His perfect power, despite the separation between body and soul, creates a kind of connection between them and punishes them, and the Fire is presented to them morning and evening). Then, when the Day of Resurrection is established, their souls will be returned to their bodies and they will be admitted to Hell forever.
