COMPILATION OF 'SAYYID UT-TAFASIR' [EXEGESIS] OF THE NOBLE QUR'AN AL-KAREEM

by Ra'ees 'al-Muhaqqiqin, Hadrat Shaykh 'al-Islam w'al-Muslimeen,
'Allama Pir Sayyad M. Madani Miya, Ashrafi al-Jilani ‘quddisa sirrahu'l-'aziz’

At a time when we constantly are thrusted with bad news and with the future for the Muslims on
a religious, spiritual, social and political aspect looking ever so bleak, Allah, The Most Gracious, has
blessed the Ahl as-Sunnah w'al-Jama'ah with news that one of the most revered and respected
scholars of our time, Hadrat Shaykh al-Islam w'al-Muslimeen has begun compiling a 'Tafsir';
commentary and explanation of the Blessed Islamic Sacred Book, the Noble Qur'an al-Kareem.

Though there are many Tafasir (pl.of tafsir) of the Blessed Qur'an available in the market from
the earliest of time to the present day, many require a deep rooted intellectual understanding
of the glossary of terms and terminology. 'Hadrat' Shaykh al-Islam's work will be both concise and
succinct and written in an intelligible & comprehensible urdu language primarily with the common
man in mind. InshaAllah, the intention is for the future English version to reflect this motion as well.

A few years ago when 'Hadrat' drastically reduced the number of lectures they had previously
been delivering, a mammoth gap was felt in the hearts and lives of the sunni masses. As it had
become an expected and normal custom for Hadrat to tour various parts of the world for
propagation means ever since the very early seventies. Hadrat's unique method of deliberation,
eloquence, logical examples and oratory fluency and passion was described and promoted by
senior contemporary Scholars as the most influential in terms of installing the true doctrines and
beliefs of the Ahl as-Sunnah w'al Jama'ah in the hearts of Muslims. Though Hadrat's age and
health was a deciding factor for the dramatic reduction of lectures the Muslims were still at odds
with themselves unable to undertstand or accept Hadrat's decision due to their immense
popularity & adoration but today the news of Hadrat's commitment & endeavor to complete the
major task of theTafsir will certainly heal the wounds for many devotees throughout the world.
