Tabari’s Approach to the Qira’Ats

Journal Title: Marife Dini Araştırmalar Dergisi - Year 2016, Vol 16, Issue 1

Abstract

Qira’ats became a field of expertise towards the end of the first century of hijri. From then on related to the Othman Codices, many important works, which have examined and classified the qira’ats, have been written. The detailed works on this field began to come out in the third century of hijri. Because the qira’ats were not restricted to the seven or ten until the fourth century of hijri, the evaluations of qira’ats that have done in this period differs from the evaluations done later on. Tabarî, who has written important works and made considerable contributions to the field, pointed out the main principles of the methodology that the qira’ats’ evaluations must rely on and consequently he influenced the studies which appeared after him. In this article we will examine Tabarî’s approach to the qira’ats through his methodology accompanied by examples. So, one of the main contributions of this article is that; this article aims to point out the principles which Tabarî has based his qira’at philosophy on both theoretically and practically.
