Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim — Hafiz Abdus Salam Bin Muhammad Bhutvi
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.
(Ayah 108){ لَا يَبْغُوْنَ عَنْهَا حِوَلًا:} A person becomes weary of staying in one place for too long, but the inhabitants of Paradise will never wish to move from Paradise to another place, because there is no place of luxury better than it. Allah the Exalted said: «{ وَ لَكُمْ فِيْهَا مَا تَشْتَهِيْۤ اَنْفُسُكُمْ وَ لَكُمْ فِيْهَا مَا تَدَّعُوْنَ (31) نُزُلًا مِّنْ غَفُوْرٍ رَّحِيْمٍ }» [ حٰمٓ السجدۃ : ۳۱، ۳۲ ] “And for you therein is whatever your souls desire, and for you therein is whatever you ask for. This is hospitality from the Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.” And in a Hadith Qudsi, Allah the Exalted said: [ أَعْدَدْتُ لِعِبَادِيَ الصَّالِحِيْنَ مَا لَا عَيْنٌ رَأَتْ، وَلَا أُذُنٌ سَمِعَتْ، وَلَا خَطَرَ عَلٰی قَلْبِ بَشَرٍ ] [ بخاری، بدء الخلق، باب ما جاء في صفۃ الجنۃ… : ۳۲۴۴۔ مسلم : ۲۸۲۴ ] “I have prepared for My righteous servants what no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and what has never crossed the heart of any human.” And the greatest of all these blessings will be the vision of Allah the Exalted, and then the blessings of Paradise will be renewed every moment, never ending nor ceasing anywhere, because they will come into existence by Allah’s word ‘Be’, and there is no end to Allah’s words. See the next verse.
