The Best Summaries of Ibn Kathir’s Tafsir
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence, the questioner asks: What are the best and most authentic summaries of Ibn Kathir’s tafsir?
Answer:
Ibn Kathir’s tafsir does not need summaries; it is a clear summary itself. You have burdened it with these abridgments, and I do not find them good either. If you want a clear summary, praise be to Allah, it is already clear.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
