Examining the Interpretation Methods of Ahl al-Bayt (AS) in the Mirror of “Al-Bayan fi Tafsir al-Qur’an”

One of the essential prerequisites for interpretation based on the words of the Infallibles (AS) is the methodology of the interpretation of those nobles. This is necessary because achieving a correct understanding of the verses of the holy Quran is based on knowing the way of interpretation of the Infallible scholars as the true interpreters of the Qur’an. So far, some commentators have interpreted the Qur’an using the interpretation methods of Ahl al-Bayt. Among other things, Ayatollah Khoui followed this method in “Al-Bayan fi Tafsir al-Qur’an” (which is more of a work in the field of Quranic sciences than interpretation); By stating numerous issues, he tried to achieve a comprehensive interpretation of the Qur’an through the traditions of Ahl al-Bayt (AS), what the author has mentioned in the introduction of this book. The present research is trying to explain the interpretation method of Ahl al-Bayt (AS) through a descriptive and analytical method and by following the text of “Al-Bayan” and other library sources. The findings of the research showed that in addition to the project of methodical interpretation, he also pointed out methods of interpretation of Surah Al-Fatihah in addition to the discussion of the interpretation of Surah Al-Fatihah and brought some traditions as evidence in this field. According to him, the method of interpretation of Ahl al-Bayt (AS) is comprehensive and includes the Qur’an-to-Qur’an method, the method of proverbs, and the method based on ijtihad and reason.
