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.
46. 1. Keep in mind, this punishment is mentioned specifically in the context of the Prophet ﷺ, the purpose of which is to express his truthfulness. In this, the principle is not stated that whoever falsely claims prophethood, We will immediately subject the false claimant to punishment. Therefore, from this, no false prophet can be considered true merely because he remained safe from divine retribution in this world.
