The analysis of reason-intent-centered interpretations from the point of view of tafsīr methodology: The example of al-Tahrīr wa't-Tanwīr

The subject of our research is to analyze and evaluate the interpretations of the concept of illaq, which is defined as the meaning that causes the judgment to be made or changed, and the concept of hikmat, which is defined as the maslahat desired to be realized by the establishment of the judgment, within the discipline of tafsir in the example of al-Tahrīr wa al-Tanwīr tafsir. For this purpose, based on the interpretations of the verses, both the basic issues of the method of exegesis related to the style and understanding of the Qur'an and the interpretations of the causes and wisdoms related to the issues of worship in the judicial context are analyzed. This examination is centered on Ibn 'Ashūr's tafsīr al-Tahrīr wa't-Tanwīr. In the study, we have taken care to follow the methods used in tafsir and tafsir methodology studies from the Prophet Muhammad's time to the present day, which are accepted as the practical application of the main discipline of tafsir. We tried to bring together the algorithms we created using analytical and scientific methods on a consensus basis. In order for this consensus to be harmonious in terms of form and meaning, we followed a method of titular and material symmetry. In this research, we have determined the meanings of the concepts of cause and wisdom in terms of the science of tafsir and the causes and wisdoms of the subjects of the method of tafsir and the acts of worship based on Ibn 'Ashūr's tafsir al-Tahrīr wa't-Tanwīr. According to the results we have reached, we have concluded that the subjects of the method of tafsir that contribute to the understanding of the Qur'ān and the acts of worship that Allah commands to His servants Key Words: Tafsir, Ibn Ashoor, cause, wisdom.
