Al-Ṭabarī’s commentary is among the important Quranic exegeses in the Islamic world. In his work, al-Ṭabarī refers to the fewest number of Shiite exegetical traditions, as the early Shiite exegete living at his time __ Such as al-ʻAyyāshī, al-Qummī and Furāt al-Kūfī __ did the same and did not narrate non-Shiite traditions. In spite of this, his commentary in addition to having a direct impact on later Sunnis’ commentaries, starting from the late 4th century, has influenced the Shiite exegetical works as well. One century after al-Ṭabarī, the Shiite exegetes in Baghdad gradually started to pay more attention to his commentary, and after the writing of al-Tibyān by al-Shaykh al-Ṭūsī (d. 460 AH) this trend in attending to Sunnis’ exegetical views with emphasis on al-Ṭabarī’s commentary, reached its summit. The present study aims at reviewing this trend and tries firstly to identify the Shiite traces in Ṭabarī’s commentary and then will attempt to clarify the direct and indirect influences of al-Ṭabarī on bringing the Sunni’s concepts (The Sayings of Companions and Successors) into Shiite commentaries especially after the emergence of al-Tibyān by al-Shaykh al Ṭūsī in the mid-fifth century.

In first Sunni commentaries, quoting Israelites has been more common than directly and indirectly referring to New and Old Testaments. Again, when disputing the people of the book, some references have been made and gradually Israelites have been replaced by quoting from the two Testaments in different cases of Shiite commentaries. Vazir-e Maghrebi is the only one commentator that has used the three ways of quoting in his commentary. In comparison to preceding commentators, he has decreased quoting Israelites to the least and, instead, increased direct quoting from the New Testament and Old Testament to argue against opponents and support his own position. The paper, reviewing the background and changing line of the three ways of quoting, has collected and analyzed his biblical statements.

Investigating a hadith narrated from the fifth Shi‘a Imam (Abu Ja‘far Muhammad al-Baqir) in two Quranic commentaries of al-Tibyan and Majma‘al-Bayan, the present essay finds its origin in al-Masabih fi Tafsir al-Qur’an by Abu al-Qasim Wazir Maghribi (370-418 A.H.). Wazir Maghribi attributes that hadith to Abu Ja‘far in an ambiguous way. However, that hadith is neither narrated in Shiite books on hadith and Quranic commentary, including the first Shiite traditional commentaries, before Maghribi nor is recorded in the most significant Sunni sources of traditional commentary such as Abu Ja‘far Tabari and Ibn Abi Hatim Radi. The present essay attempts to discover traces of the said hadith, as well as similar traditions, in old sources of hadith and commentary and to indicate that Wazir Maghribi has narrated so many commentarial hadiths from Tafsir al-Kalbi (d. 146 A.H.) attributing them all to Abu Ja‘far, i.e., the Shiit’s firth Imam. Almost all of those hadiths are related to story narration, causes of descend, determination of ambiguous points, and Quranic figures and places. Method of this essay is not analyzing chains of transmission, but rather a synthesis of two methods of analysis of the text and analysis of sources.
