The questioner : The student of knowledge who wants to read in tafsir: what are the most famous books of tafsir that a student of knowledge should acquire?
The Shaykh : I see that he should acquire "Tafsir Ibn Kathir" (may Allah have mercy on him) and the tafsir of our Shaykh 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Sa'di (may Allah have mercy on him), because they are the best of the books of tafsir that I have looked into. There are other tafsirs for the advanced student of knowledge, such as Tafsir al-Qurtubi and Tafsir al-Shawkani. Yes.
