Interpretation of Qur'an

Kafi

محمد بن يحيى، عن أحمد بن محمد، عن ابن فضال، عن ثعلبة بن ميمون، عمن حدثه، عن المعلى بن خنيس قال: قال أبوعبدالله (عليه السلام): ما من أمر يختلف فيه اثنان إلا وله أصل في كتاب الله عزوجل ولكن لا تبلغه عقول الرجال

Muhammad b. Yahya, from Ahmad b. Muhammad, from ibn Fudhal, from Tha'labah b. Maymoon, from one who told him, from al Mu'ala b. Khunees who said: Aba Abdullah(as) said: "There is not from an issue in which two people may differ but that and for it is a principle in book of Allah(swt) but the intellects of the men can not understand/reach it."

Tafseer al ayyashi

عن عبد الرحمن بن الحجاج قال: سمعت أبا عبد الله عليه السلام يقول: ليس ابعد من

عقول الرجال من القرآن

From Abdur Rahman b. al Hajjaj who said: I heard Aba Abdullah(as) say: "Nothing is beyond/further from the intellects of men than the Qur'an."

From Hisham b. Saalim from Abi Abdullah(as) who said: "Whoever exegesis the Qur'an with his opinion, so (if ) hits(the mark) there would be no reward and if he made mistake then his sin is upon him."

Tafseer al Meezan: A Review

Here's the method of tafseer/exegesis of the Qur'an employed by the author of Tafseer al Meezan, as stated on the Hawza website.

"The exegete explains the verse with the help of other relevant verses, meditating on them together - and meditation has been forcefully urged upon by the Qur'an itself - and identifies the individual person or thing by its particulars and attributes mentioned in the verse.
No doubt this is the only correct method of exegesis. "

So is this method correct, what do our ahadith and classical scholars say?

Ma'ani al Akhbar by Shaikh Saduq (ra), Page 190

**(باب) * (معنى الحديث الذي روى عن الباقر عليه السلام أنه قال: ما ضرب رجل القرآن بعضه ببعض إلا كفر**

Section on the meaning of the hadith narrated from Imam al Baqir (as) that he said: "A man does not strike a portion of the Qur'an with another portion, but that he does kufr."

1 - حدثنا محمد بن الحسن - رحمه الله - قال: حدثنا الحسين بن الحسن بن أبان، عن الحسين بن سعيد، عن النضر بن سويد، عن القاسم بن سليمان، عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام قال: قال لي أبي عليه السلام: ما ضرب رجل القرآن بعضه ببعض إلا كفر. وسألت محمد بن الحسن - رحمه الله - عن معنى هذا الحديث فقال: هو أن تجيب الرجل في تفسير آية بتفسير آيه اخرى

Told us Muhammad b. al Hasan(ra) who said: Told us al Hussain b. al Hasan b. Abaan, from al Hussain b. Sa'eed, from al Nudhr b. Suwaid, from al Qasim b. Sulaiman, from Abi Abdullah(as) who said: Said to me my father(as): "A man does not strike a portion of the Qur'an with another portion, but that he does kufr."

And I (i.e. Shaikh Sadooq) asked Muhammad b. al Hasan (Shaikh Saduq's teacher) about the meaning of this hadith so he said: "It is that the man answers regarding the tafsir of an ayah by tafsir of another ayah."
