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.
21. Allah has decreed: "I and My messengers will surely prevail [25]." Indeed, Allah is All-Powerful, All-Mighty.
[25] In What Senses Does the Dominance of the People of Truth Occur?
By dominance is not meant only political dominance; rather, this is just one aspect of dominance, and sometimes Allah’s party attains this, and sometimes it does not. The dominance that is certain has two aspects. One is that the moral superiority of Allah’s party is, in any case, an established fact. Honesty and avoidance of deceit and trickery are the golden principles of this party, which people of all kinds sincerely admire. The second aspect is the steadfastness and dominance of their beliefs. False ideologies, in every era, keep forming and collapsing and die their own death, whereas the beliefs and doctrines of Allah’s party have remained intact and established from the time of Sayyiduna Adam until today, and will continue to remain so until the Day of Judgment.
