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.

46. We chose them for a special quality: remembrance of the Home of the Hereafter [53].

[53] That is, remembering the Hereafter is the very elixir that makes a person one of Allah’s chosen ones. These chosen personalities regarded this world as nothing more than a travelers’ inn, and the home of the Hereafter was always their true objective.
