عہدِتابعین میں مشہور مكی مفسرینِ تابعی

Abstract

The work of compiling the Holy Qur'an was completed in the era of the Prophet (ﷺ) and the era of the Companions (Sahābah). It has been needed in every era regarding the meanings and interpretation (Tafsīr) of the Holy Quran. Therefore, there was a commentary on the Qur'an even in the era of the Tabeen (Tābe'īn). Therefore, they preserved the meaning and interpretation (Tafsīr) of the Qur'an. The number of commentators (Mufasserīn) Tabi'een is more than the number of commentators (Mufasserīn) Sahaba who were associated with the knowledge of Tafsīr. While a large number of Tābe'īn devoted their lives to knowledge and handed over the knowledge of Tafsīr to the Ummah. Ibn Taymiyyah states that the people of Makkah who have the most knowledge of tafsir are the students of Ibn-e Abbas, such as Mujahid bin Jabr, Ata bin Abi Rabah, Ikramah, Saeed bin Jubir and Tawoos. In this research article we discuss the life and work of these five Tābe'īn Mufasserīn.
