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 68){ فِيْهِمَا فَاكِهَةٌ وَّ نَخْلٌ وَّ رُمَّانٌ: ”فَاكِهَةٌ“} is a generic term; it includes every fruit. Dates and pomegranates are also included in {’’ فَاكِهَةٌ ‘‘}, but due to their abundance in Arabia and their being favored fruits, they are mentioned separately. For the Muqarrabeen, {’’ مِنْ كُلِّ فَاكِهَةٍ زَوْجٰنِ ‘‘} is mentioned, and for the Ashab al-Yameen, {’’ فَاكِهَةٌ وَّ نَخْلٌ وَّ رُمَّانٌ ‘‘} is mentioned. The difference between the two is clear.
