امام طبری كے حالات زندگی اور تفسیری منہج

Abstract

Ibne Jareer Al-Tabari is well known personality in the 3rd century as no one second in his period. His opinion was considered authentic due to his knowledge and virtue. He was great scholar, commentator, narrator, jurisprudent and historian. Taftheer Ibne Jareer Al-Tabar┘ is used as basic source for those who follow “Transcribed Method”. He established a separate school of thought due to his over command on Fiqah. This paper describes the “The Exegetical Methodology and the Biography of Ibne Jareer Al-Tabar┘”. The Tafsir gives information about older commentaries which have not survived to the present. Its content —which encompasses dictionaries, historical notes, law, recitation, theology and Arabic literature— has made it a highly referenced book throughout history, resulting in many editions. It is also a good example of reasoning in a Tafsir by a widely accepted scholar, giving it a value of diraya.
