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 72){ فَبِئْسَ مَثْوَى الْمُتَكَبِّرِيْنَ :} From this sentence, it is understood that the greatest reason for entering Hell is arrogance (that is, considering oneself superior and denying the truth). The original crime of Iblis was also arrogance, therefore Allah Almighty, instead of listing their individual crimes, mentioned the root of all crimes, which is common among all criminals.
