Abstract
The book of “Quranic Hermeneutics, Al-Tbrisī and the craft of commentary” written by Bruce Fudge is one of the most important works of orientalists about Majma Al-bayan‘s Tafsir. An Examination of the book indicates that in spite of Fudge‘s innovation and effort in some parts of the book, there are some important problems and faults in it. In this article, after introducing Fudge and his works, we have provided a report on the content of the book. Furthermore, his ideas are evaluated both in terms of content of the book and the references. Given some parts of the book, we believe that Tabarsi has interpreted the Quran verses in accordance with his own ideas and beliefs, and this has been A deciding factor in Majma Al-bayan‘s Tafsir. Moreover, we hold that Majma Al-bayan is simply a copy of Al-Tūsī‘s al-Tibyān with some minor changes of the words. Finally, in this study, the aforementioned claims have been examined.
