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.
The meaning of (Ayah 79){ اَمْ اَبْرَمُوْۤا اَمْرًا فَاِنَّا مُبْرِمُوْنَ: ’’إِبْرَامٌ‘‘} is to make something firm and strong. Originally, it is used for twisting a rope tightly. It is stated: {’’أَبْرَمَ فُلَانٌ الْحَبْلَ‘‘} “So-and-so twisted the rope very firmly.” That is, they have made a firm plan for something and have made a definite decision about it. By this is meant the decisions made by the disbelievers in their secret gatherings, which they made against Islam and the Muslims, to the extent that they made a firm decision to imprison, kill, or expel the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) from Makkah. (See Al-Anfal: 30) It is stated, they made a firm resolve for such a matter, so We also make a firm plan. Then everyone saw how they failed and were disappointed, and how the religion of Allah prevailed.
