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 19){ يُخْرِجُ الْحَيَّ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ … :} Along with the mention of the alternation of day with night and night with day in the universe, and the changes of morning and evening and ‘Isha and Zuhr and ‘Asr, He has stated His perfect power, that is, bringing forth the living from the dead and the dead from the living, and reviving the earth after its death. (See also Al ‘Imran: 27) And after mentioning these changes as evidence, He said that in the same way, on the Day of Resurrection, you too will be brought forth alive from the earth after death. That is, you see with your own eyes that the system of the universe continues in such a way that the living comes from the dead and the dead from the living. The earth lies dead, with no sign of greenery or freshness, but as soon as water descends, all kinds of vegetation spring up and thousands of kinds of animals are produced. For such an All-Powerful One, by whose power all this happens, how can it be difficult to resurrect you after your death? And see Surah Ya-Sin (33) and Hajj (5).
