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 186,185) ➊ { قَالُوْۤا اِنَّمَاۤ اَنْتَ مِنَ الْمُسَحَّرِيْنَ… :} This is the same answer that the people of Thamud gave to Salih (peace be upon him).
{ وَ اِنْ نَّظُنُّكَ لَمِنَ الْكٰذِبِيْنَ:} This {’’ اِنْ ‘‘} is actually {’’إِنَّ‘‘} whose subject {’’نَا‘‘} is omitted: {’’ أَيْ وَ إِنَّا لَنَظُنُّكَ مِنَ الْكَاذِبِيْنَ‘‘} meaning our assumption does not go anywhere except that you are one of the liars.
