We were recommended long ago to have a look at ibn Ajiba's tafsir, by our shaikh and it was only available in arabic. So JzkAllah khair for this work. The Fragrance scent - beautiful.

Time line: 28:30 Notes Conditions for Internal meaning: 1. Purity of heart. 2. Never claim that the internal meaning is the only meaning 3. Should not go against the Arabic grammar rules. (Therefore knowldege of Arabic Essential , balagha etc) 4. It should not confirm theological contradiction These key points are in book fragrance scent (didn't catch author's name). And Ibn Ajiba in his tafsir, fulfills all these requirements

D. Traditionally 2 sorts of tafasirs. 1.through narration (eg imam at tabari - beautiful description given by shkh Ahmed upto timeline 39.00 and more examples given. Gems of info on) 2. Tafsir based in Raay = opinions. Acceptable (done through linguistic approach) or unaccepted (based on assumption and arbitrary opinion)

Cont. Tafsir Rayy Using, unpakcong the language based on incorporating narrations perspective, or giving preference to a theological perspective (confirmed by rational arguments and textual evidence) [Timeline 46:24 -significant] Language based interpretation came after narration based tafaasir. Time line48: beautifully explained 🎉 Deep detail there on Zamashkari, Razi, etc. Need this in a pdf form. Imam Alusi on footsteps of Imam ar Razi and iman ibn Ashur thereafter (timeline 51.00) Imam Qurtubi primary focus is on fiqh (timeline 52.48)

This landmark work will straddle the line between the genres of Tafsir and Quran translation) and Imam Alusi (Ruh al-Mani fi Tafsir al-Quran. by: Maḥmud b. ʿAbdullāh al-Ālūsī.) as mufassirs: They are A. Much later scholars. Imam ibn Ashur in previous century and imam Alusi just before him B. Belong to a school that combines multiple approaches. C. Need to see where they come from

External meaning to ayah bound by narrations of traditions. And arabic language, not based on one's own Opinion. Internal meaning: for Batn meaning caution must be taken not to presume the internal meaning is the ONLY Meaning. (10mins onwards into of audio) Interpretation = taweel. Gift of ibn Abbas, based in dua made by رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم
