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.
And your Lord knows well what they conceal in their hearts [94] and what they reveal.
[94] The discussion is about the excuses and pretexts of the polytheists of Makkah, which they presented as arguments for not accepting Islam. In this context, Allah Almighty has stated that the polytheists of Makkah themselves well understand the reality of such excuses and objections. And Allah is fully aware even of the thoughts in their hearts; He knows what motives lie behind such baseless objections, what incites them to make such statements, and what are the real reasons for their not believing. Then, He will deal with them accordingly.
