A close look at Allameh Qāzī’s works reveals the fact that he interpreted the Holy Qur’an using the Qur’an-based exegesis, that is, a technique of exegesis in which minor verses are interpreted through major ones. This was the standard technique practiced by the Holy Prophet of Islam (SAW) and the infallible imams (AS) as well as Islamic jurisprudents in their interpretations of āyāt al-ahkām (legislative verses) of the Holy Qur’an. Allameh Tabataba’i owed his technique for the exegesis of the Qur’an and hadīth to Allameh Qāzī and based his Tafsīr al-Mīzān on the Qur’an-based exegesis. The study of Allameh Qāzī’s interpretation of Samāt prayer and Ghadīriyah book of poetry suggests that he was a great man of letters and religious interpreter.
