"A Study and Investigation of the Interpretation of Surah Saba' by Al-Fadil Al-Yamani in his Footnote 'Durr al-Asdaf fi Hal 'Uqad al-Kashshaf'."

Abstract

The interpretation of the Holy Quran is one of the most important and greatest sciences, as the interpreters seek to reveal the secrets of the Book of Allah and its great meanings. Among these scholars is Yahya bin al-Qasim bin Amr al-Alawi, known as (al-Fadil al-Yamani), who was distinguished by his thorough investigation of the connotations of words and their linguistic structures. The study aimed to introduce al-Fadil al-Yamani and his footnote, with the verification of Surat Saba'. The researcher used the historical descriptive approach in the study, and the inductive approach in the verification section, then presented a model of the full verification of Surat Saba'.

This manuscript is based on tracking the statements of al-Zamakhshari and what he mentioned in his interpretation "al-Kashshaf", and clarifying the most precise problems through the induction of the text and the deduction of linguistic connotations. Al-Fadil used the sciences of grammar, morphology, and rhetoric, and he chose what needs explanation, clarification, and commentary, which he expressed in his introduction "Durr al-Asdaf fi Hall 'Aqd al-Kashshaf". The study recommends collecting, studying, and verifying the grammatical and rhetorical opinions in the footnote of "Durr al-Asdaf".
