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.

6. But my invitation [3] only increased their flight.

[3] That is, I have not left any effort within my capacity in conveying Your message to the people. I have devoted day and night to this task. But this nation is so obstinate that they always interpret every straightforward thing in the opposite way. The more I tried to bring them closer, the more they tried to stay away from me and run from me.
