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.

26. This is a fitting recompense (for their deeds) [18].

[18] That is, they will be given only as much punishment as their evil deeds warranted. They will not be punished more than that. And the basis of their crimes was that they never believed that they would be held accountable. On this basis, they denied the verses and spent their entire lives freely, like an unbridled camel.
