Tafsir Sirat-ul-Jinan Fi Tafsir-il-Qur’an

Sirat-ul-Jinan: A Luminous Source of Guidance and Quranic Insight

The Holy Qur’an is the ultimate source of guidance and counsel for Muslims and all of humanity in every aspect of life. To truly benefit from its blessings, it is essential to understand its meanings. This need led scholars in the Indo-Pak subcontinent to pen comprehensive exegeses (Tafsir) in Urdu, the widely spoken language.

Tafsir Sirat-ul-Jinan Fi Tafsir-il-Qur’an stands out as a monumental work in this tradition.

Authored by a Leading Scholar:

• This Tafsir is the fruit of years of extensive study and tireless effort by Shaykh-ul-Hadith wal-Tafsir Hazrat Allama Mawlana Mufti Abu Salih Muhammad Qasim Attari.
• It incorporates material drawn from both classical (Qadim) and contemporary (Jadeed) commentaries, alongside other vast Islamic sciences.

Key Features of Sirat-ul-Jinan (Summary of 11 Qualities):

• Dual Translations: Each verse is accompanied by two established Urdu translations:
  • The famous, unparalleled translation, Kanz-ul-Iman, by Ala Hazrat Imam Ahmed Raza Khan.
  • The simpler, derived translation, Kanz-ul-Irfan.
• Balanced & Comprehensive: The commentary maintains a moderate (Mutawassit) length—neither overly brief nor overly detailed—making it accessible yet thorough.
• Easy Jurisprudence: Necessary Shari’ah rulings and Fiqh matters are explained in an easy-to-understand manner.
• Social Reform: Includes valuable articles on correcting deeds (A’mal) and addressing social evils (Ma’asharati Buraiyan).
• Clarity on Beliefs: Clearly explains the beliefs and practices of the Ahle Sunnat with supportive evidence and proofs.
• Focus on the Seerah: The Prophet’s biography (Seerat-un-Nabi) is highlighted and incorporated throughout the commentary.

Publication Status:

• Out of the ten (10) planned volumes, nine (9) volumes of “Sirat-ul-Jinan” have been published.
• Each volume covers the Tafsir of three (3) sections (Paras) of the Holy Qur’an.

This Tafsir is an invaluable addition to the literary heritage of the Indo-Pak scholars, offering contemporary readers a deep, yet clear, understanding of the Holy Qur’an.
