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.
7. And whenever a prophet came to them, they only mocked [6] him.
[6] Just as you are calling this Book the tales of the ancients, its example is exactly the same as when, in earlier times, Allah’s prophets came to their people with Allah’s Book, and they mocked Allah’s Book and their prophet. You too, by following in the footsteps of those people, have started mocking this Book and are troubling your prophet with mockery and other mischiefs.
