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.
He (Allah) will say: "Remain despised therein [102], and do not speak to Me."

The Literal Meaning of ﴿خسأ﴾:
The word ﴿خساء﴾ is used to drive away or shoo away dogs and pigs, just as in Punjabi we use the words "dar dar" to drive away or dismiss a dog. Then, its usage extended to anyone who is considered despicable and contemptible, telling them to go away or get out. That is, in response to their plea, Allah Almighty will say that you are such a contemptible creation that it is only fitting for you to remain in this Hell, and see! Do not make any such plea to Me again.
