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.
24. (These are the ones) who were guided to the pure word [29] (of monotheism), and they were guided to the path of the Praiseworthy Allah.
[29] This verse can have two meanings. One is that it is understood as relating to this world. In that case, the meaning becomes clear from the translation itself. The second is that it is understood as relating to the Hereafter, as the mention of the people of Paradise is ongoing. In this case, it would mean that they will be guided to such a place where the angels will greet them with peace, offer congratulations, and there will be no kind of idle talk or argument. And this will be such a path that, upon reaching it, the people of Paradise will always remain engaged in the praise and glorification of the Praiseworthy Allah Almighty.
