Tafsir Al-Qurtubi Vol. 3 : Juz' 3 eBook

The tafsr of al-Qurub is perhaps one of the most compendious of them all and is certainly among the most famous. As its title, al-Jmi'' li Akm al-Qur''n - The General Judgments of the Qur''an, suggests, its main focus is on the rulings and judgments to be found in the Qur''n. However, in the course of doing that, al-Qurub examines all the relevant sciences necessary, such as the adth pertaining to the yahs, events in the srah, what the Companions, their Followers and other noted people of knowledge said about the yahs, essential aspects of Arabic etymology, syntax and usage, copiously illustrated by examples, and much more.

Among the important matters covered in this volume are extensive commentary on the yat al-Kurs the greatest yat in the Qur''an, the yats on usury and the longest yat in the Qur''an which regulates credit and debt, among the very last revealed to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, the unparalleled yats that conclude Srat al-Baqarah, and the passage from Srah l ''Imrn that explicates the difference between yats containing clear judgements and others that are open to interpretation. There is of course, the eponymous theme of the srah, the family of ''Imrn: Maryam, her son ''s, Zakariyy'' and his son Yay, peace be upon them all.
