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 7) {وَ السَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ الْحُبُكِ: ’’حَبَكَ يَحْبُكُ حَبْكًا‘‘} (N, D) To bind something, to make it strong, the weaver weaving cloth with strength and beauty. It is the plural of {’’ الْحُبُكِ ‘‘ ’’حَبِيْكَةٌ‘‘}. {’’حُبُكُ الرَّمْلِ وَالْمَاءِ وَالشَّعْرِ‘‘} The waves that form on still water or sand due to wind, the waves of curly hair. {’’حُبُكُ السَّمَاءِ‘‘} The paths of stars in the sky. (Qamus)
