Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali

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.
19. 1. All belong to Him and are His slaves, so when you are not willing to take any slave as your son or any bondwoman as your wife, then how can Allah make some of His owned slaves and servants His sons and some His wives?
19. 2. By this are meant the angels; they too are His slaves and servants. These words also indicate their honor and dignity, that they are the ones close to His court. They are not His daughters as the polytheists believed.
