Tabari s Comprehensive Exposition of the Interpretation of the Verses of the Qur an, also known as Tabari s Tafsir, is one of the great monuments of classical Arabic and Islamic scholarship which, over a millennium, has been a fundamental reference work for scholars engaged in the tradition of Qur anic exegesis. This two-volume translation focuses on thirty selected verses and Suras, or Chapters, associated with special merits and blessings and also includes Tabari s own introduction to the Comprehensive Exposition.
