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.
21. Which is witnessed by those nearest (to Allah, the angels). [14]
[14] That is, ﴿عليين﴾ is such a lofty place that Allah’s close angels are always present there, or the souls of Allah’s close servants reside there. Or the close angels look at and read the record books of the righteous there, rejoice over them, and on the Day of Resurrection will bear witness in their favor.
