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.
Allah is the Creator of all things [80], and He is the Guardian over everything.
[80] That is, Allah is not only the Creator of everything, but He is also overseeing everything at every moment. Through this, the system of the universe runs in an orderly manner. The sustenance of all living beings depends on the regularity of this system. The earth produces vegetation through rain. Likewise, all kinds of minerals and other treasures buried in the earth are all within Allah’s knowledge and control. Even today, they are under His control, and tomorrow they will remain under His control. Likewise, Paradise and Hell are also under His control. Therefore, how can a person who denies Allah’s verses and rebels against Him hope for success? Such people will certainly remain in loss.
