Books of Tafsir Recommended for Reading
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner says: What are the books of tafsir that you recommend I continue to read?
Answer: The best of them, as far as we know, are the tafsir of Ibn Jarir, the tafsir of Ibn Kathir, and the tafsir of al-Baghawi. However, the tafsir of Ibn Kathir is the best of them; because he pays attention to the hadiths and pays attention to the Salafi creed. This is a good tafsir, even though it is lengthy. But we advise you to reflect. Leave the books of tafsir aside. We advise you to read the Qur'an with reflection and understanding. Ask the people of knowledge about what is difficult for you, whether by phone or by correspondence. Ask them about the verses that are difficult for you. And if you have knowledge and you review the tafsir of Ibn Jarir, or Ibn Kathir, or al-Baghawi for the sake of benefit, then that is good. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
