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.
79. And He is the One who spread you throughout the earth, and to Him you will be gathered [80].
[80] That is, He created you from a single soul and then spread you across the entire face of the earth, and this process of spreading will continue until the Day of Judgment. Now, the Being who can spread you out can also gather you together before Himself, and can hold you accountable for whatever you have done in this world.
