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.
61. 1. This is not a command to seize and kill them, but rather a curse that if they do not desist from their hypocrisy and actions, they will have a most exemplary end. Some say that it is a command. However, these hypocrites refrained from their actions after the revelation of the verse, so the action against them that was commanded in this verse was not carried out (Fath al-Qadeer).
