الإمام المفسر محمد بن يوسف الفريابي (ت٢١٢ه)‎ و منهجه في تفسيره

Abstract EN

This research is an inductive/deductive investigation of Imam Al-Firyaabi's approach toexplication in the narrations reported about him in the largest availableencyclopedia of explication by transmission, namely theAl-Durr Al- Manthoor by Al-SuyooTi.

More than (842) sayings, attributed to Imam Al- Firiyaabi by Al-SuyooTiwere selected.

Among the most important findings of the research is that Tafseer Al- Firyaabi is one of those explications that are rich in good ascribed narrations which should be taken careof.

Truthfully, they are among the strongest ascriptions of explicationby transmission due to the fact that Al-Firyaabi is the Sheikh of Abu Abdullah Al-Bukhaari, the Commander of the Believers in Hadith, from whom Al-Bukhari narrated many Hadiths in SaHeeH Al-Bukhaari.

Another finding is that Al-Firyaabi is one of the most attentive exegetistsin pointing out the intended meaning and providing readings, but one of the least to resort to jurisprudentialexplication (i.e.

verses of provisions).

As a recommendation, researchers are urged to extract the approaches of the traditionalistsreported in their missing books, as referred to in the pages of other books, especially those encyclopedic ones such as Al-Durr Al-Manthoor by Al- SuyooTi and FatH Al-Baari by Ibn Hajar, as well as others.

All Praise is for Allah by whose favor good works are accomplished.
