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 6) {ذٰلِكَ عٰلِمُ الْغَيْبِ وَ الشَّهَادَةِ …:} That is, the Lord who is running this entire system of creation and management, His knowledge is so vast that whatever is hidden from you or witnessed, past or present or future, everything is within His knowledge. His power is so boundless that He prevails over everyone, and His mercy is such that it encompasses everything. No one else possesses this knowledge, power, or mercy—whether human, jinn, angel, or any other creation—so why should anyone else be worshipped?
