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 be patient over what they say, and part from them in a gracious manner [11].
[11] This does not mean that you should sever all relations with them. Rather, it means that as far as their taunts, mockery, sarcasm, and harsh words are concerned, you should bear these things and not respond to them. And as far as guiding them and wishing them well is concerned, you should never miss any opportunity for that. In fact, you should seek such opportunities and always think of their well-being, and continue to invite them towards Allah.
