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 24){ فَاِنْ يَّصْبِرُوْا فَالنَّارُ مَثْوًى لَّهُمْ … :} That is, in this world, many calamities are averted or become easier through patience, and some calamities are averted through making vows, but there, whether the disbelievers are patient or not, Hell has been appointed as their abode, and no matter how many vows they make, none will be accepted.
