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.
53. Never! But (the real matter is that) they do not fear the Hereafter [25].
[25] Even if We were to send such open letters in their names, these people would never believe and would declare it to be a feat of magic. The reason is that they neither believe in the Hereafter nor do they fear accountability. Only a person who fears accountability gives a thoughtful answer. And the one who does not even consider the danger of accountability can say whatever he wants. What harm can come to him?
