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.
5. 1. It is mentioned in a hadith that when the Muslims heard the initial part of Surah Al-Fath, ليغفرلك الله, they said to the Prophet ﷺ, "Congratulations to you ﷺ, but what is there for us?" Upon this, Allah revealed the verse ليدخل المؤمنين (Sahih Bukhari, Chapter: The Expedition of Hudaybiyyah).
