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 24) ➊ {وَ هُدُوْۤا اِلَى الطَّيِّبِ مِنَ الْقَوْلِ:} That is, in the world they were guided to the pure word, the word of Tawheed "La ilaha illallah," and they were guided to the path of the Lord worthy of all praise, Islam. Similarly, in the Hereafter, they will be taken to that place where they will hear only pure speech; no vain or sinful talk will reach their ears. There will be no quarrel and no idle chatter; from every side, the sound of peace will be heard. It is said: «{ لَا يَسْمَعُوْنَ فِيْهَا لَغْوًا وَّ لَا تَاْثِيْمًا (25) اِلَّا قِيْلًا سَلٰمًا سَلٰمًا }» [ الواقعۃ : ۲۵، ۲۶ ] "They will not hear therein any vain talk or sinful speech, except the saying: Peace, peace." Besides peace, there will be the praise of Allah and His glorification. See Surah Fatir (33 to 35) and Az-Zumar (73, 74).
➋ { وَ هُدُوْۤا اِلٰى صِرَاطِ الْحَمِيْدِ :} In this, there is also an indication that the people of Paradise will attain this blessing because of the praise of Allah, as it is said: «{دَعْوٰىهُمْ فِيْهَا سُبْحٰنَكَ اللّٰهُمَّ وَ تَحِيَّتُهُمْ فِيْهَا سَلٰمٌ وَ اٰخِرُ دَعْوٰىهُمْ اَنِ الْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعٰلَمِيْنَ }» [ یونس : ۱۰ ] "Their call therein will be, 'Glory be to You, O Allah!' and their greeting therein will be, 'Peace.' And the conclusion of their call will be, 'All praise is due to Allah, Lord of all the worlds.'"
