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.
And (He will grant you) another thing that you love: help from Allah and a near victory [14]. So give glad tidings [15] to the believers.
[14] Allah Almighty first mentioned the blessings of the Hereafter, from which it is clear that ⑰ the real and lasting blessings are those. Apart from them, there is another, a third blessing which is related to this world. It is mentioned afterwards. And it is preferable in the sense that, by nature, a person prefers something immediate. And that blessing is the conquest of Makkah, which will soon be achieved by Allah’s help. Thus, this bargain of the believers with Allah is beneficial and fruitful in every respect. In this world, victory is achieved, spoils of war and other gains are obtained, honor is attained, and spiritual joy is gained from the victory of Islam. And the benefits that will be obtained in the Hereafter are far greater than all these.
[15] That is, the glad tidings of this help and near victory is, in itself, an independent reward.
