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.

10. And when the records of deeds are laid open [10],

[10] The meaning of ﴿نُشِرَتْ﴾ ﴿نَشَرَ﴾ is to open something, to spread it out after opening, and to make some news public. Its opposite is "Tawaa," which means to fold up. It is said ﴿نشرت الكتاب ثم طويته﴾, meaning "I opened the book and then closed it." That is, on that day, people's records of deeds will be opened and handed over to them.
