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 6) ➊ { اَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ الْاَرْضَ مِهٰدًا :} To instill certainty about the Day of Judgment and to shake their intellects, Allah Almighty has presented some wonders of His power, asking them to consult their reason: is it difficult for the One who performs such great deeds to resurrect you again? And these wonders are present all around you and within your own selves.
➋ He said, just look at the place where you live—can it be conceived by reason how We created such a vast earth and spread it out like a bed?
