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.
12. You are amazed [8] (at Allah’s power), but they mock.
[8] That is, you ﷺ are amazed upon hearing of such great creative acts of Allah, but these people, with utmost carelessness and indifference, mock such astonishing signs. Or, you are amazed at how insensitive and unjust these people are, that even such clear manifestations of Allah’s power have no effect on them.
