Introduction to the Principles of Tafsir

Ibn Taymiyyah's work on principles of Tafsir, translated to English by Salim Abdallah Ibn Morgan, revised and edited by Dr. Hassan El-Rashid. This book outlines the principles, used by the scholars of Islaam, from the companions onwards, in gaining a full understanding and appreciation of what Allaah has revealed to the whole of mankind through his last Messenger (pbuh).

It highlights the correct methodology used by the early scholars in explaining each and every ayah (verse) of the Qur'aan by first referring to the Qur'aan itself, and then the Prophet's Sunnah, then the Companions, followed by their succeeding generations.It is a unique work on the important subject of tafseer, highly recommended to every serious student.
