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.

23. Gardens of perpetual residence, which they will enter, along with the righteous among their fathers, their spouses, and their descendants [33]; and the angels will enter upon them from every gate.

[33] Here, after mentioning the above nine qualities of the believers, it is stated that only such people are deserving of Paradise. Then, the fathers, wives, and children of such people who are righteous—even if their deeds do not reach that level—Allah Almighty will still unite them with them in Paradise. And the angels, whichever gate they enter upon them, will greet them with prayers of peace.
