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.

73. And those who feared their Lord will be led in groups [93] to Paradise, until when they reach it and its gates are opened, its keepers will say to them, "Peace be upon you; rejoice, so enter it to abide therein forever."

[93]
The Levels of Paradise

Just as there are many levels and types of disbelief, there are also many levels of faith and piety. And according to a hadith, Paradise has one hundred levels, which also means that faith and piety have just as many levels. These righteous people will also be grouped according to their ranks. They will be taken towards Paradise with great honor and respect. When these groups reach Paradise, its gates will be opened even before their arrival. The guardian angels of Paradise will come forward to welcome them, greet them with peace, give them glad tidings and congratulations of entry, and it will be publicly announced that now enter forever and ever.
