Tafsir Al-Mizan Volume 39
Exegesis of the Holy Qur'an
Description:... Exegesis of Chapters 70 to 77 of the Holy Qur'an by Allamah Tabataba'i
The English volumes 39 and 40 are translations of the Arabic volume 20 of al-Mīzān, which covers the last 45 sūrahs of the Qur'an (70-114). These are the shortest chapters of the Qur'an, which were predominantly revealed in the early years of the Prophet's mission in Mecca. The chapters have been used, from the time of the Prophet up to our age, to introduce the beginners to the Book of God. The brevity and rhyme of the verses make them easy to remember, which is an excellent way of developing a personal relationship with the Qur'an. Here we shall present a few tips and guidelines on how a lay reader can engage with al-Mīzān specifically, and with the Qur'an more generally.
