The case of recitation in the tafsir of Garâibü'l-Qur'an and Regâibü'l-Furkan (Baqara example)

The Qur'an is a divine revelation in terms of both pronunciation and meaning. From the day Qur'an was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad through Cebrail (a.s.), Qur'an has continued to survive in the hearts and lives of those who believe in. Since the Qur'an provides the roadmap of tranquility to individual, family and community; It also heralding of divine consent and the key to the eternal paradise for the hereafter. So , the "understanding/tafsir" aspect of the Qur'an has always been given importance and efforts have been directed towards this goal. In tafsir studies, Qira'a is almost the base and taking important place among the auxiliary branches of science for tafsir. Because of that reason, throughout history, commentators have benefited from Qira'a in understanding and interpreting the Qur'an. One of these diligent studies is Nizâmüddin en-Nîsâbûrî's tafsir named Garâibü'l-Kur'an and Regâibü'l-Furkan, which we chose as the subject of the thesis. Our study consists of introduction, three chapters and conclusion. the subject, importance, method and scope of the research are discussed In the introduction, In order to analyze the subject in depth, the tafsirs written before and after this work were examined and the information obtained was evaluated in a comparative way. In the first chapter, some information about the life and scientific personality of Nizamuddin en-Nîsâbûrî is presented. The main goal of our thesis intended to give content and method analysis of the tafsir by Garâibü'l-Kur'an and Regâibü'l-Furkan tafsir, is given in this section for the introduction. In the second part, in order to understand Nîsâbûrî's method of dealing with qira'a, the concept of qira'a, its emergence, and the development stages from the tedvin period to Nîsâbûrî are discussed chronologically. In order to justify our subject, the subjects of "Ahrufüs-Seb'a", which is accepted as the source of qira'a, and "Kırâat-ı aşere", which Nîsâbûrî also considers while handling qira'as, are also mentioned in this section. In the third part; The relationship between Tafsir and Qiraat has been discussed in the context of Nîsâbûrî tafsir. The subject is limited to the differences in qira'a at the tafsir of Garaibü'l-Qur'an, Surah Baqara. The differences in qira'a that affect or do not affect the meaning in this Surah Bakara are discussed in a comparative way with the views of Ulama before and after Nisaburi. As a result, the position of Nîsâbûrî's tafsir in terms of content and method and the conclusion reached on Nîsâbûrî's approach to qira'a have been evaluated.
