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.
7-1. That is, whatever Allah has created, since it is the balance of His wisdom and benefit, therefore it has its own beauty and uniqueness. Thus, everything He has created is beautiful, and some have taken the meaning of أَحْسَنَ as أَتْقَنَ and أَحْكَمَ, meaning every thing was made strong and firm. Some have taken it in the sense of أَلْهَمَ, meaning every creature was inspired with those things which it needs.
7-2. That is, the first human, Adam (عليه السلام), was created from clay, from whom the human race began, and his wife Hawwa was created from Adam’s (عليه السلام) left rib, as is known from the ahadith.
