Sources of Tafsir according to Imam Al-kokbani through the writing of Tafsir al-Manan interpretation of the Qur'an

Abstract

   This research aims to clarify the sources of interpretation of Imam Al –kokbani(may Allaah have mercy on him through his Tafsir al - Manan، in which he combined the art of narration and know-how، and was distinguished by originality and accuracy of the phrase.the first and most correct of these sources is the interpretation of the Qur'an by the Qur'an، then by the interpretation of the prophetic Sunnah because it explained the Holy Qur'an and explained to him، and then by the sayings of the companions، because the Holy Qur'an was revealed in their language، and because they informed people about the Customs and conditions of the Arabs and because they had the power of understanding، erudition and perception.

     The research showed that the interpretation of the Qur'an by the Qur'an is what the Holy Qur'an included، and what was narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is an argument because he gained authority from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) because he is infallible، and what was narrated from those without him from the companions (may Allaah be pleased with them) is out of Ijtihad and not an argument.
