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.
12-1. That is, Hell will flare up in anger just by seeing those disbelievers from afar in the plain of Resurrection, and it will roar and rage to seize them in its wrath, just as it is stated elsewhere (اِذَآاُلْقُوْافِيْهَاسَمِعُوْالَهَاشَهِيْقًاوَّهِىَتَفُوْرُ ۙ تَكَادُتَمَــيَّزُمِنَالْغَيْظِ) 67. Al-Mulk: 8-7) "When the inmates of Hell are thrown into it, they will hear its roaring, and it will be boiling with fury, as if it would burst with rage." The seeing and roaring of Hell is a reality.
