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.

[16] The Scene of Joy for the One Who Receives the Record in His Right Hand:
Since I was certain that I would be questioned about my deeds, I lived a cautious life in the world and made every possible effort not to disobey Allah in any way. Such a person, after the judgment, will be given a place to reside in lofty and elevated gardens, with delicious, tasty, and abundant foods, and the fruits of the trees of the gardens will be lowered before them, so that they will not have to bear even the slightest trouble to pick their desired fruit. After presenting all this, it will be said to them: "Enjoy to your heart's content. Eat from wherever you wish and as much as you wish without any hesitation. In the world, you imposed various restrictions upon yourselves because of Allah's commands. Today, you are given just as much freedom. These blessings and this freedom are for your deeds, as you endured restrictions in the world."
