Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran — Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani

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.
92. He is the Knower of the unseen and the seen [90], and He is above what they associate with Him.
[90] That is, if any other being besides Allah had even the slightest authority, then Allah would be the first to know of it, because He is the Knower not only of existing things and present knowledge, but also of non-existent things and unknown knowledge. It is impossible for anything to be hidden from Him. And it is on the basis of this vast knowledge that He declares that besides Allah, there can be no deity, nor does anyone possess any kind of authority. Therefore, Allah is far above and exalted beyond the absurd beliefs of the polytheists.
