The principles of Ibn Taymiyya's qur'anic interpretation

---

Convinced that "true" Islam had become disorted at the hand of the ahl al-bida' (the innovators) such as the philosophers, the mutakallimun, the suffis and the Shi'ites, Ibn Taymiyya (d. 1328) not only refutes their fundamental views but also their qur'anic hemeneutics, especially their ta'wil, through which "un-Islamic" views were imposed on the words of the Qur'an. This concern leads him to write his Muqadimma fi Usul al-Tafsir (an introduction to principles of Qur'anic interpretation) which this thesis focuses on. In his principles, Ibn Taymiyya lays strong emphasis on the tafsir bi al-ma'thur and the authority of the salaf (the Companions of the Prophet ang theri Followers), adducing many new arguments in support of this position. He believes that the Qur'an had been explained in its entirety by the Prophet to his Companions, and the latter passed this understanding on the tabi'un. This view leads him to rationalize claiming that the salaf's sayings always can be explained, and to oppose the use of reason in determining the meaning of the sripture. Ibn Taymiyya did not leave behind a complete commentary on the Qur'an. However, his principles of tafsir not only shocw much originality, they have also veen very influential. In fact, his influence in this respect in not limited to medieval thinkers like Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya, Ibn Kathir, al-Zarkashi and al-Suyuti but extends to modern writers as well.
