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.

8. And the moon will be eclipsed [7].

[7] Even today, the moon temporarily becomes eclipsed and loses its light, but this is merely a play of a few moments. When, during its orbit, the earth comes between the sun and the moon, it naturally becomes eclipsed. However, on the Day of Resurrection, the moon will permanently lose its light, because at that time, the present system itself will be thrown into chaos.
