Shaykh Abdul Hamid Kishk, may Allah have mercy on him, was a renowned caller to Islam, preacher, and Imam, through whom Allah brought much benefit. We have not seen his book "Fi Riḥāb al-Tafsir" (In the Realms of Exegesis), and we see no impediment to reading it, given its author's adherence to the Sunnah, good conduct, and eagerness for knowledge.
