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 8) {فَاَلْهَمَهَا فُجُوْرَهَا وَ تَقْوٰىهَا: ’’لَهِمَ يَلْهَمُ لَهْمًا‘‘ (س) ’’اَلشَّيْءَ‘‘} To swallow something in one go. {’’ أَلْهَمَ اللّٰهُ يُلْهِمُ إِلْهَامًا ‘‘} (Form IV) Allah puts something into the heart, makes it understood, grants its ability. Allah has placed the recognition of good and evil in the heart of every human being. This recognition was first placed in intellect and nature, then it was reminded again through the Prophets (peace be upon them), so that people may avoid disobedience and adopt piety. See Surah Dahr (3) and Surah Balad (10).
