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.

And We saved those who believed [22] and were mindful (of Allah).

[22] That is, Sayyiduna Salih ؑ was commanded to migrate before the punishment descended. Thus, by Allah’s command, he migrated with the believers, whose number was about one hundred and twenty, and went towards Palestine, settling near Ramla. It was at this very place that Sayyiduna Salih ؑ passed away.
