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.
He alone is Allah, Who is present in the heavens and on the earth. [3] He knows your secret and your open (deeds), and He knows whatever you do.

Allah's Presence Everywhere:
The sky above man, the earth beneath him, and everything in between—the moon, the sun, the stars, the winds, in short, everything that man sees—all are managed and controlled solely by Allah. He knows your outward and inward states, even the secrets of hearts. That is why He keeps everything under His control. From this verse and some other similar verses, some people have been misled into thinking that Allah Himself is present everywhere, and some have said that He is present in everything. However, many other verses and authentic hadiths prove that Allah's Essence is above the Throne, beyond the seven heavens. As for Allah's presence in the heavens, the earth, and everywhere, it is in terms of His knowledge and power, and due to the perfection of these attributes. Such is the state of His power and knowledge that, while being above the Throne, He sees every single thing and watches over it. He hears the call of every caller. This is the belief of the majority of Ahl al-Sunnah, except for a few misguided sects.
