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.
19. Then as for the one who is given his record in his right hand, he will say, "Here, read my record [15]!"
[15] Receiving the record of deeds in the right hand means that in the court of Allah, he will be counted among the obedient and righteous. Clear indications of this begin to appear from the moment of death. Then, when his register of account is given to him in his right hand, or he himself receives it with his right hand, he will be so overjoyed that he will be beside himself, and he will invite others, saying, "Look at my record of deeds! See how excellent my marks are in this test."
