Tafsir al-Qur’an al-‘Azim — Ibn Kathir. Read the Qur’an alongside the classical commentary of Imam Isma’il ibn Kathir, in English or Urdu, by Surah and Ayah.

Source note: the English and Urdu Tafsir text below is fetched live, exactly as supplied, from the Qul (Tarteel AI) and Quran.com open tafsir resources via the spa5k/tafsir_api dataset — nothing here is AI-generated or paraphrased. This digital edition is organised by Surah and Ayah rather than fixed print-volume numbers, so we have not invented a volume scheme to avoid guessing at boundaries we could not verify against a specific printed edition. Urdu audio (a full-surah recitation of the Urdu translation) is sourced from a public Internet Archive recording; no equivalent structured English audio recording of this Tafsir could be verified, so English audio is not offered rather than substituted with something else.
