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.
29. 1. This is the denial of ba‘th ba‘d al-mawt (resurrection after death), which every disbeliever commits, and denial of this reality is in fact the greatest reason for their disbelief and disobedience. Otherwise, if the truth of the belief in the Hereafter were firmly established in a person's heart in the true sense, he would immediately repent from the path of disbelief and crime.
