Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran — Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani
Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran (Facilitation of the Quran) is a comprehensive Quran commentary by Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar from Pakistan. Known for his eloquent and accessible writing style, Kilani authored this tafsir with a focus on clarity — making Quranic meanings understandable to the common reader. The tafsir provides detailed historical context for verses related to battles and expeditions, and firmly refutes modernist ideologies using strong scriptural evidence. It is widely regarded as an invaluable resource for understanding the Quran and countering deviant interpretations. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.
49. Then after that, there will come a year in which people will be given relief by abundant rain [48], and in that year they will press (juice and oil).
[48] According to this verse, the glad tidings given by Sayyiduna Yusuf ؑ were not part of the king's dream or its interpretation. However, according to the knowledge Allah had granted him, he ؑ also gave people the good news that after these fourteen years, the fifteenth year would come in which there would be abundant rainfall, and all those things from which oil or juice could be extracted would yield plentiful produce. There would be abundant agriculture, the udders of the animals would be filled with milk, and especially, people would extract wine from grapes and the like. This last point was mentioned according to the questioner's situation, because that was his occupation.
