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 43){ اِنَّا نَحْنُ نُحْيٖ وَ نُمِيْتُ … :} That is, the continuous cycle of life and death in the world is only in Our hands; no one else has any involvement in it. Thus, We grant life to countless people and give death, then grant life to others and also give death. In this way, innumerable creatures continue to be born and die, and in the end, all of them have to return to Us alone.
