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.
For the explanation of (Ayah 28) { قُرْاٰنًا عَرَبِيًّا غَيْرَ ذِيْ عِوَجٍ … : ’’ قُرْاٰنًا عَرَبِيًّا ‘‘}, see Surah Yusuf (2) {’’ غَيْرَ ذِيْ عِوَجٍ ‘‘}. Due to the tanween, there is a general negation, meaning there is no kind of crookedness in it. This meaning could not have been obtained from {’’غَيْرَ مُعَوَّجٍ‘‘} (which is not crooked). For the explanation, see Surah Al-Kahf, Ayah (1). Both of these verses have been stated as a prelude to the example that is to come in the next verse.
