Abstract:
The aim and objective of this paper is to critically examine the methods being used in the tafsīrs of two exegetes, Jalaludeen as-Sayuti and Sayyid Quṭb, on ayāt Dayn in their respective tafsīrs. These two giants Mufassiran (مفسران) were known as Medieval and modern Mufassir. The two were among the notable scholars of Mufassirun who both had great roles in the spread of the words of Allah, by using simple Arabic terminologies to interpret the words of Allah, and supporting it with the Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW). Both exegetists authored many books in the field of Arabic literature and Islamic jurisprudence. But our attention focused on their famous books of Tafsīr. That is, Tafsīr Jalalayn and Fizilal- al-Qur’ān. The research methods adopted for this work were historical, exegetical and descriptive. The historical method enabled the researcher to examine the biography and the work while the exegetical method was used for the exposition of various textbooks used concerning the key issues addressed in this work. The findings of the study were to find an approach to detailing the two scholars in promoting and spreading the word of Allah. The paper concludes that both exegetes played a significant role in promoting the smooth running of the words of Allah in Africa and the World at large.
