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 89) {اِلَّا مَنْ اَتَى اللّٰهَ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيْمٍ :} By a sound heart is meant a heart that is free from disbelief and polytheism. Some have also taken it to mean being free from innovation, ignorance, and evil morals. Wealth and children will also be of benefit only to the one whose heart is free from disbelief and polytheism.
