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 20) {فَاَرٰىهُ الْاٰيَةَ الْكُبْرٰى : } By the great sign is meant the staff turning into a serpent. If {’’ الْاٰيَةَ ‘‘} is taken as a generic noun instead of singular, then both the staff of Musa and the shining hand can be meant, rather, the "nine clear signs" (nine miracles) given to Musa (peace be upon him) can also be meant. See Surah Bani Isra'il (101).
