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.
11. You can only warn those who follow the Reminder (Quran) and fear the Most Merciful [11] unseen. So give such people the good news of forgiveness and a noble reward.
[11] Only those people fear the Most Merciful without seeing Him who truly believe in the Day of the Hereafter and in the accountability of their deeds before Allah, and they do not corrupt their belief in the Hereafter with the notion of easy salvation. Such people are few. These people live extremely cautious lives in the world out of fear of Allah. And it is such people who become deserving of forgiveness for their sins and mistakes from Allah Almighty. Their sins are forgiven, and the reward for their good deeds is multiplied many times over.
