Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim is a 4-volume Quran commentary by Hafiz Abdus Salam bin Muhammad Bhutvi, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar and Sheikh ul-Hadith from Pakistan. Based on over 45 years of teaching and research, this tafsir follows the methodology of Tafsir bil-Ma'thur — interpreting the Quran through authentic Hadith, statements of the Companions, and the understanding of the early generations (Salaf). It is distinguished by its complete avoidance of Israeliyyat (Judeo-Christian narratives) and unverified reports. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.

Some Muslims of Makkah, being distressed by the oppression of the disbelievers, outwardly showed some flexibility, or were compelled to utter some improper words, and could not migrate with the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him). However, afterwards, they fulfilled the requirements of faith as much as possible, that is, they migrated, participated in jihad, and remained firm in their stance. For this, Allah Almighty forgave their mistake.
