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.
Indeed, with Us are shackles [13] and a blazing Fire.
These well-off people who are at the forefront of enmity and opposition to you ﷺ — We have much with Us to punish them. Heavy chains, so burdensome that they will not be able to move. They will be thrown into a blazing fire; their food will be the tree of Thohar, which they will try to eat out of the compulsion of hunger, but it will get stuck in their throats and will go down only with great difficulty. Besides this, they will also receive a painful punishment.
