Taiseer-ul-Quran (تیسیر القرآن) is a complete four-volume Urdu commentary on the Noble Qur'an by Mawlana Abdul Rahman Kailani (rahimahullah), whose very title — "the facilitation of the Qur'an" — captures its purpose: to make the meanings of Allah's Book easy and clear for every reader. Written in remarkably simple, fluent, and effective Urdu, it is a tafsir that the beginner can follow with ease, yet from which the advanced student of knowledge never ceases to benefit.
Mawlana Kailani's commentary is distinguished by its clarity and its firm grounding in the Qur'an and authentic Sunnah. Alongside a flowing translation, he explains the historical background of events and battles (ghazawat) in plain language so the reader grasps the context of the verses without difficulty. With a strong command of both the Islamic and modern sciences, he also addresses many contemporary questions and refutes, with sound evidence, the doubts raised by the deniers of hadith (Munkareen-e-Hadith) and other rationalist and modernist deviations of the present age. As Hafiz Abdul Waheed, director of Dar-us-Salam Houston, remarked of it: once he begins reading this tafsir, he does not want to stop.
For further Qur'anic study, Dar-us-Salam offers other landmark Urdu tafaseer, including the clear and concise Urdu: Tafsir As-Sa'di (3 Vols.), the classical Urdu: Tafsir Ibn Kathir (6 Vol.), and the widely read Tafheem-ul-Qur'an (6 Vol. Set). A single-volume Qur'an with Urdu translation for daily recitation is also available as Al-Qur'an Al-Kareem Lafz ba Lafz Urdu Tarjuma.

تیسیر القرآن از مولانا عبدالرحمن کیلانی کا شمار ان جامع تفاسیر میں ہوتا ہے جن کا ترجمہ انتہائی آسان، سلیس اور رواں ہے اور تفسیر ایسی کہ ابتدائی طالب علم بھی اور علم کا انتہائے طلب گار بھی کبھی بے نیاز نہیں ہو سکتا۔
حقیقتاً یہ ایک ایسی تفسیر ہے جس میں دور حاضر میں مغربی افکار سے متاثر بلکہ مرعوب طبقہ کی، منکرینِ احادیث کی، اسلام پر پھیلائے گئے شکوک و شبہات کی، عقل پرست فِرَق باطلہ کی، موجودہ دور میں اٹھنے والے فتنوں کی نہ صرف گرفت کی گئی ہےبلکہ مضبوط دلائل سے تردید بھی کی ہے۔
نیز واقعات و غزوات کا تاریخی پس منظر اور حال احوال انتہائی آسان الفاظ میں بیان کیا کہ قاری کو آیات کا مطلب و مفہوم سمجھنے میں دقت نہ محسوس ہو۔
