Abstract

Mufasirin have always been the center of intrest, Tafāsīr are the embodiment of Scholerly work, and due to their contribution and great services meanings of Qur’ān become very easy to understand. There are specific principles of Tafāsīr. Allāmā Farāhī is also one of those Mufasirin who worked on sources and methods of Tafāsīr. No doubt, the knowledge basis on the solid sources Maṣādir glitters with its own solidity and conformity on the sky of knowledge. Talking to the Qur’ānic commentary, the most solid source is the Holy Qur’ān itself as recommended by the main stream of Qur’ānic commentators Jumhūr Mufassirīn. Allāmā Farāhī, one of the latest commentators, apparently argues the same but practically his Qur’ānic commentary differs it because of binding the interpretation of Qur’ān by Qur’ān "Tafsīr ul Qur’ān bil Qur’ān" with his lonely concept of "The Coherence In the Qur’ān" called Naẓm ul Qur’ān, that is a mere logical matter. So its impact on the Tafsīr literature differs not only from the fore commentators but also leads the incoming commentators to base their Qur’ānic commentaries on mental basis rather than solid Ḥadīth sources. So, following is the analytical study on Farāhī's Tafsīr sources and their impact on the Tafsīr literature.
