TAFSIR AL-QURTUBI VOL. 2 IBD

Sinopse

TheátafsÄ«ráof al-QurṡubÄ« is perhaps one of the most compendious of them all and is certainly among the most famous. As its title,áal-JÄümi&lsquo, li Aá¸ÑkÄüm al-Qur&rsquo,Äüná&ndash, The General Judgments of the Qur&rsquo,an, suggests, its main focus is on the rulings and judgments to be found in the Qur&rsquo,Äün. However, in the course of doing that, al-QurṡubÄ« examines all the relevant sciences necessary, such as theáá¸ÑadÄ«thápertaining to theáÄüyahs, events in theásÄ«rah,áwhat the Companions, their Followers and other noted people of knowledge said about theáÄüyahs, essential aspects of Arabic etymology, syntax and usage, copiously illustrated by examples, and much more.In this volume, the author continues through the secondájuz&rsquo,(twoáá¸Ñizbs) of SÅ«rat al-Baqarah, stopping to examineáaá¸ÑkÄüm/judgments in greater detail including the changing of the qiblah, á¸Ñajj, retaliation, fasting, wills and bequests, menstruation, marriage and divorce, fighting in the Way of Allah, ṬÄülÅ«t and JÄülÅ«t, and lending Allah a generous loan, a list, however, which hardly does justice to the range of subject matter and depth of treatment of this extraordinary work.
