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.
54. Then he will say [31]: "Would you care to look (for him)?"
[31] This sentence could be the speech of Allah Almighty as well. In that case, it would mean that when the people of Paradise are engaged in conversation among themselves and one of them narrates the story of his worldly companion, Allah Almighty will ask them: Do you want to know about his circumstances? And it could also be the speech of the one narrating the story himself; in that case, it would mean: Come, let us find out about his condition.
