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.

10. 1. The meaning of باسقات is 'tawalan shahqat' (tall, lofty, elevated). طلع is the tender, fresh fruit of the date palm, which appears at the very beginning. The meaning of نضید is layer upon layer. The fruit of the date palm is also included among the gardens. But it has been mentioned separately and specifically, which highlights the special importance that the date palm holds in Arabia.
