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.
25. (And they say this) so that on the Day of Resurrection they may bear their own burdens in full, and also some of the burdens of those whom they misled without knowledge [25]. Behold! How evil is the burden they will bear.
[25] That is, not only were they themselves guilty, but by not conveying the true message of the Prophet to others, they also prevented them, so they took upon themselves the burden of their misguidance as well. On the Day of Resurrection, this burden of sins will be placed upon their backs in a tangible form.
