Evaluation of the Tafsir of Imam al-Qurtubi
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Also, they are asking for your opinion on al-Qurtubi's tafsir?
Answer:
Likewise, al-Qurtubi's tafsir is a useful and good tafsir, but like the others, one takes from his words and leaves what is not correct; whatever contradicts the evidence is left, whether it is from al-Qurtubi, Ibn Jarir, Ibn Kathir, or others. Every exegete may make some errors; he may authenticate some weak hadiths, or weaken some authentic hadiths, either because he spoke from memory and made a mistake, or because he forgot what he had previously known about this hadith or this ruling. The scholars of knowledge compare what the exegetes and others have mentioned with the Book and the Sunnah. What agrees with the truth is accepted from al-Qurtubi and others, and what contradicts it is rejected. He is not infallible, nor is any other scholar of knowledge, whether an exegete or otherwise. However, his book is very useful, of great benefit; he focused on evidence and rulings in it. It is a very useful book, and he is an inspired and successful exegete, but he is not infallible. From everyone, one takes what is correct and leaves what is not. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
