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.
10. The believers are but brothers to one another. So make peace [13] between your brothers, and fear Allah so that you may receive mercy.

Prevention of Fighting:
That is, when you set out to make peace, keep in mind that you are reconciling between two brothers. Therefore, perform this task with complete justice and fairness, and with fear of Allah, in such a way that neither party is deprived of their rights nor is anyone wronged. If you reconcile them with justice and fairness, then surely Allah will have mercy on you. And this mercy can be upon the group making peace individually, and collectively as well—that is, Allah will save your community from disintegration, its integrity will be restored, and its strength will remain intact. This verse connects Muslims all over the world into a universal brotherhood. No matter where a Muslim is in the world, all other Muslims consider him their brother. Such a bond of brotherhood is not found in any religion or faith other than Islam.
